Lovebirds are getting a second chance at forever with help from theSan Diego Humane Society(SDHS).
The officers carefully removed 53 birds from the residence, including lovebirds, finches, pigeons, and doves. Most of the birds were found free-flying around the living room of their former home. After safely containing the birds, SDHS officers transported the pets to the shelter on the SDHS’s San Diego campus.

All of the birds received brief medical exams upon their arrival at the shelter and then time to decompress following the move. Veterinarians found the birds in good health and medically and behaviorally cleared many of the animals for adoption in the days after they arrived at the shelter.
Almost all of the birds spent Valentine’s Day in new homes, with 50 of the 53 birds finding adopters ahead of Feb. 14.
SDHS says it is glad that the birds' former owners reached out for assistance when they realized they needed help with their pets and hopes others are inspired to do the same if they find themselves in a similar situation.
