Either 2-1. 2-2, 3-1, 3-2. Home or mobile. We prefer rural area. 650 – 800 month. Also, considering Plantersville, Porter, New Caney and Cleveland, TX areas. Pets okay-2 declawed inside cats. Fully box trained. They are therapy cats. Has to be fully electric. Gas is not good for family with asthma problems. Acerage doesn’t matter and we love to do yard work and planting bushes and flowers. Love to feed birds and other wildlife that comes thru with rural living.

Last night my husband found a baby morning dove on our front patio. We put it back in the nest but the parent birds flew off and didn’t return until this morning. I put the baby in a box on a heating pad for the night and returned it to the nest this morning. To my surprise there was another baby on top of some bushes by my front door and one of the parents was there pretending to have a broken wing.
Later I checked on the nest and the baby I returned to the nest was on the patio again. An hour later both babies are under one of the parent birds in the middle of my sidewalk.
This isn’t a safe place. I live near an open space with snakes and many feral cats. Is there a way to get them all some place safer?
Thanks for the answers. I can’t move them to my back yard because I have two dogs. I have put up a sign asking people not to use the sidewalk up to my front door. The babies are under a bush with one of the parents. I will hope for the best.

My cat found a young bird, one of those small ones with brown feathers that are flying about constantly. About the same size as a Blue-tit. Anyway, couldn’t find the nest, so I put it in the bushes nearby for about 5hours to see what would happen. It was still there. Perfectly fine, sent me on a wild-goose’s chase trying to catch it. It drinks water from a small injection(without the needle), but I can’t seem to get it to swallow any food. Its got some feathers. but its quite scrawny and either one of its wings or legs is wonky so it can’t really fly very well. I don’t know how old, but I would say its in the ‘teenager’ age… So what do i do now? I have it in a small box with sawdust cuttings, some food in a tiny bowl… and it keeps trying to get out. But I have cats everywhere, and if it can’t fly, it sure as hell can’t defend itself against a cat. Any tips what to do now? please!
if I put it in a tree – won’t it fall and seriously hurt itself again? it’s not flying or flapping its wings…
and barely claws at anything just pecks me…
Sister in law just moved into a house, has a side patio that is shaded on 3 sides by several tall arbor vitae bushes, she has been putting bird seed in her feeders, and has been invaded by chipmunks. What can she do to keep them out of the bird food ? She is feeding seed mixes and suet . The chipmunks are eating it all.
