    Oh Jen....so sorry to hear about this. For right now, could you contact a parrot shelter to see if they would foster your boys until you get on your feet? You could write up up a contract with them. I don't know what is available in the US, what about social services for temporary support? A women's shelter to see what resources they might be able to direct you to?

    I too am sorry to hear about your situation, Jenn. If you've not already done so, you might want to apply for SSI benefits. If someone agrees to take and care for your birds temporarily, beyond your belief that they may be a great friend, PLEASE be sure as well that they are genuinely trustworthy and that they understand what a responsibility it will be to care for your guys! Also, if you contact me privately I will be happy to arrange to have some bird food sent your way.

    Jen I am so sorry to hear all this, I am not of much help here as I really don't know what services are available in the US. I do hope you find comfort happiness soon. Is there a pet store close buy that you normally buy your food from. Maybe they could help with food. I know sometimes here they sell things off cheap if the packaging is damaged.

    Wow this is a tough situation. What about public assistance, have you tried them? They require a lot of paperwork but I understand that they can give medical help and assist with food. In some situations they can help with bills too.
    I'll keep all of you in prayer.
