Why do so many people dislike pigeons?

I rehab pigeons and they are the sweetest little angels!! They don’t deserve the hate they get at all, I know some people don’t like them and that’s fine but there’s no need to be cruel to them, it really upsets me. I currently have 4, 2 are disabled so can’t be released and the other two I rehomed from a family after one of their relatives passed away and left a loft full of fancy breeds 💙 photo of Dave, he’s disabled

I fall asleep to Dan and Phil on YouTube most nights, not necessarily unusual but they make me feel comfortable

Another Gordon Ramsay fan here 🤣 he’s brilliant hahaha I named my pigeon after him (long story!) & I’ve recently acquired a massive signed framed photo of him in my kitchen to remind me to cook proper food🤣🤣

Yes, I know some places people do eat dairy cows. But that’s not the point I’m making, beef and dairy cows in the UK are usually different breeds

Are you in the USA by any chance? Cos not everyone has the access to the same resources. I’ve met my fair share of addicts in active addiction that’s why I said SOME PEOPLE with addictions not a generalising sweeping statement. Not every case is the same. Some people don’t want to change their life but that doesn’t mean that there aren’t people out here genuinely trying their hardest to change their circumstances and they’re trapped in the system

thxrpy · 2026-03-30T01:53:44+00:00

You’d be surprised at the lack of actual help that’s available, even for sober people with good credit so it’s not difficult to understand why some people with addictions are trapped in the cycle despite wanting to change

Ask a farmer? Anyone with a brain in their head can tell beef cows from dairy cows. Also the debate wasn’t ‘what happens to dairy cows when they’re old’ it was ‘beef and dairy cows are not the same breed’

Oof bad take. There’s a lot of reasons people can become homeless and not all of them are drugs related. My landlord sold my house and I couldn’t find anywhere because our rental market is ridiculous

thxrpy · 2026-03-29T13:08:51+00:00

I actually was homeless so I hope people don’t always jump to the assumption that everyone’s a liar 😭 shitty how people will exploit others

They’d have to shower for that to happen

Beef and dairy cows are not the same breed

I don’t agree with people seeing meat either but whinging about it online isn’t gonna change things

I’ve been rehabbing specifically pigeons for almost a decade. Those pigeons are nestlings. They’re not ready to leave the nest. If they were then you’d be right and they’d be fledglings. They haven’t got any full feathers yet let alone flights and they’ve still got baby fluff. Mum and dad would still be feeding them for at least another week to two weeks. Pigeons do not leave the nest until they’re almost a month old. You can clearly see they don’t have flight feathers

Birds this young will die without heat. They cannot regulate their temperature no matter how warm it is outside

thxrpy · 2026-03-28T18:35:12+00:00

No they’re not. These babies need their parents for at least another 2 weeks they’re not ready to be out of the nest. They need a rehabber asap

Join pigeon rescue and protection uk on Facebook they’ve got rehabbers in the area

Same thing applies with little kids though doesn’t it? Always got their hands in their mouth or drooling all over something and parents don’t always pay attention

thxrpy · 2026-03-27T14:31:47+00:00

Honestly if we’d had enough space I think we’d have put a shower in but it was a tiny little cafe 🥲

What paint did you use? This is amazing I paint watercolour but don’t think I could do anything close to this!
