Lost Senegal Parrot - Chapel Hill, North Carolina

[stephaniew]

My beloved Senegal Parrot, Buttons, escaped through a crack in the door on the night of Sept. 2nd. I have had her for fifteen years, and she is generally friendly towards women. She is green, with a gray head, and an orange chest. She is fully flighted, with no band, and she has never been outdoors before. She dosen't have any animals that she is fond of, but I put her cage outdoors, with the doors open and the inside full of treats. I've hung up around 800 flyers in the downtown Chapel Hill/Carrboro area, contacted all of the vet's and animal control units within 50 miles, posted lost ad's in the papers and posted her multiple times on different areas of Craigslist. I've walked around calling her, esp. at dawn and dusk, but only got responses on the first day. There have been a few potential calls about sightings, but mostly they've been prank calls. If anyone sees or hears anything in the area, please call my cell phone, anytime, at 513.240.5399. There is a large reward offered for her return - I'll do anything to get her back. Thank you.
