Stay Calm and Act Quickly
It can be a frightening experience when your bird has escaped from its cage. It’s important to stay calm and act quickly. Birds can fly long distances, get lost or be injured outside, so it’s crucial to take immediate action.
Search the Immediate Area
The first thing to do is search the immediate area for your bird. Start with the room the cage is in and then systematically go through the adjacent areas. Alert family members and neighbours to keep an eye out for the bird as well.
Use Social Media to Spread the Word
Get the word out about your missing bird by posting about it on social media. Join local community groups and post information about your bird along with a clear photo. This can help increase the chances of someone spotting your bird and alerting you.
Set up Bait to Lure the Bird
Setting up bait can help lure your bird back to safety. Place the bird’s favorite food or treats near your home or around the area where it was last seen. Additionally, you can hang a familiar toy or perch outside, securing it with a string so it won’t fly away in the wind.
Contact Local Animal Shelters and Veterinarians
Contact local animal shelters, veterinarians, and pet stores to alert them of your missing bird. Provide them with a clear photo of your bird along with your contact details. They can also advise on what steps to take to ensure the safety of your bird.
