Palomacy Pigeon & Dove Adoptions saves the lives of domestic (unreleasable) birds by helping San Francisco Bay Area shelters and finders (and beyond). We provide guidance, referrals, education, long-term foster care, avian vet treatment and adoption services. Palomacy is a volunteer-powered, donation-supported project. Thanks to our supporters, we have saved the lives thousands of birds since 2007 and helped countless others.
Palomacy is pigeon & dove diplomacy!
