Pittsburgh Parrot Rescue Partnership Leads to Adoptions Among Plumbing Company Employees
Bridgeville, United States - June 27, 2026 / Sureway Heating Cooling Plumbing /
BRIDGEVILLE, Pa. - Sureway Heating Cooling and Plumbing, a residential service company based in Bridgeville, is drawing attention to its ongoing partnership with Heart & Soul Parrot Rescue, a local organization that has successfully rehomed more than 1,000 parrots throughout the Pittsburgh area.
Heart & Soul Parrot Rescue was founded in 1998 by Sherry Johnson as a family-oriented organization committed to rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming parrots in need. The rescue operates permanent adoption services alongside foster care programs, working to place each bird in a safe and appropriate home environment.
The organization maintains a thorough screening process for both prospective adopters and foster families. Applicants are required to provide a safe living environment, maintain a smoke-free household and complete a training class centered on responsible bird care.
Training sessions address topics including:
- safe foods for parrots,
- how often bedding should be cleaned,
- how to train and interact with birds, and
- appropriate toys and enrichment.
Prior to adoption, every bird undergoes a medical exam, reflecting the rescue's dedication to the health and well-being of each parrot in its care.
Heart & Soul Parrot Rescue serves communities across the Pittsburgh region and participates in a range of local events, including:
- Bridgeville Day on the Ave,
- Pittsburgh Pet Expo,
- Tekko, and
- the Brentwood Fourth of July Parade.
Sureway supports the rescue by offering storage space, a regular monthly meeting location and periodic assistance with fundraisers and general operational needs. At various points, as many as 30 parrots have been housed within Sureway's warehouse space.
The partnership carries a personal dimension as well. Several Sureway employees and customers have permanently adopted birds through Heart & Soul Parrot Rescue, deepening the connection between the two organizations.
"Heart & Soul Parrot Rescue does extraordinary work for birds and families across the Pittsburgh area," said John Wilcox, president of Sureway Heating Cooling and Plumbing. "At Sureway, we believe in supporting our community in ways that go beyond the services we provide. We are proud to partner with an organization that leads with compassion, education and heart."
