Jasper - Poicephalus Senegal Bird Available for Adoption in West Warwick, Rhode Island

Meet Jasper!

Jasper is a handsome male Senegal Parrot born on November 1, 2012, who arrived at Rhode Island Parrot Rescue on December 13, 2025. He is currently looking for a patient and understanding home where he can blossom at his own pace.

Jasper came to the rescue after his previous guardians found it difficult to manage his behaviors during hormonal season. While he can be cautious around new people and unfamiliar situations, beneath that shy exterior is a sweet little parrot who simply needs time to feel safe and comfortable.

One of Jasper's favorite activities is relaxing outside in his travel cage, where he can enjoy the fresh air and watch the world go by. He also has a special love for dried pasta, which is a great way to earn his trust! Once he's feeling comfortable, Jasper will show off one of his favorite talentswhistling "If You're Happy and You Know It, Clap Your Hands."

Jasper is not the type of bird who will instantly become your best friend. He is looking for someone who understands that trust takes time and is willing to let him move at his own pace. For the right person, watching Jasper gain confidence and come out of his shell will be incredibly rewarding.
If you have the patience to let a shy bird shine, Jasper may be the perfect companion for you.
