16 Parrot Rescue Centers In Massachusetts

This article will explore parrot rescue options based in the State of Massachusetts.

Each region within even a single state may present different terms for the same pet care and rescue options. 

To avoid ambiguities, I am defining these terms for this article before listing the rescue centers in Massachusetts. 

Sound good?
