Inform them... yes
Surrender the animal to them... no And in most states, the pound is required to hold the animal for a maximum of 2 weeks before allowing to be placed up for adoption. We will not even discuss that at that point they can deem it unfit and euthanize it. Just how long is he to keep a bird he does not want? How long before he can find it a wonderful forever home with someone who would cherish it completely? Nope… still not going to say that he should NEVER sell the bird. If he has put up posters and checked with petstores, the pounds (spca, humane assoc, rescue orgs), and the vet offices he has done all he can. If he has NOT done all these… then he needs to.

Granted, not wait forever, but surely forever doesn't equal two days? At least give any owner who has lost their bird a chance to find their companion again. Two months is more then enough time, and isn't an insurmountable time either. Its the way he stated in his origional post that he wanted a pionus and then went on two days later saying he was going to trade teh bird for one. Sounded to me like he had already made up his mind and that the bird was just a dollar sign to him...which I find very bad form indeed.

You might also try Craigslist, but don't give all the specifics of the bird. I've noticed more and more people listing birds this way. You might also want to try Pasadena Humane Society.... they have been very helpful with people locating their birds.
