Pigeon First Aid

Pigeon First Aid & Companion Animal Care

Sunday, November 16 | 11am–2pm

📍 Meet at the Powell Street BART Station, San Francisco

Ever wanted to be a hero to pigeons and their animal neighbors—all in one afternoon? Join us for a hands-on day of compassion, learning, and real impact in the heart of SF.

San Francisco’s pigeons often suffer from painful injuries caused by string, hair, and other debris tightly wrapped around their toes. These tiny hazards can lead to serious infections and even amputations. Together, we’ll gently rescue injured pigeons, remove the harmful materials, provide basic first aid, and release them safely back to their flocks.

While we’re out on the streets, we’ll also be sharing food and toys for companion animals belonging to our unhoused neighbors—because care and kindness should extend to all animals, big and small.

✨ No experience necessary! We’ll provide all the training and supplies you’ll need. Just bring:

Compassion

Comfortable shoes

A willingness to help animals who are often overlooked

⏰ Arrive on time! We’ll begin promptly at 11am with a brief but essential safety and training briefing.

📍 Meeting location: Powell Street BART Station
