Lonely Fans: Sponsor Pepita
Meet Pepita the Eclectus Parrot
Loud. Loyal. Living for the Drama.
Status: Screaming. But also single.
Likes: Making an entrance, being heard, and centre stage.
Dislikes: Subtlety, people walking past without saying hello, and being told to "shhh."
About me: SCREEEEECH!
Oh—sorry, did I startle you? That’s just how I say “welcome” here at the sanctuary.
I’m Pepita, a fabulously feathered Eclectus parrot with a voice that could stop traffic and a personality that demands attention (and snacks).
The truth is, I’m not angry—I just have very strong feelings about being ignored. Every time someone walks through the gates, I greet them with my signature squawk. Some call it "a lot." I call it hospitality.
I’m not just loud—I’m loyal. And even though I came to the sanctuary under difficult circumstances, I’ve made this place my stage. Now I just need some fans who can appreciate a bird with a little... presence.
For just $10/month, you can become one of Pepita’s Lonely Fans and help support:
My daily fruit & veggie spread (presentation matters)
Enrichment toys to keep my brilliant bird brain busy
Veterinary care, because being fabulous is hard work
In return, you’ll receive:
A digital fan certificate (framing it is optional, but encouraged)
Monthly updates and photos of me looking flawless
The satisfaction of supporting one of the loudest voices in Aussie wildlife
Let’s face it—I’m not for everyone. But if you’re into confidence, colour, and a little chaos, we’ll get along just fine.

Lonely Fans: Sponsor a Wild Soul
At Byron Bay Wildlife Sanctuary, we care for animals who’ve been displaced, injured, or orphaned due to habitat destruction, extreme weather, or human activity. These incredible animals are no longer just wildlife – they’re wild souls in need of support.
Through Lonely Fans, we’re inviting animal lovers (yes, you!) to connect with our residents in a new way: as fans.
Each animal has their own Lonely Fan profile, a personality-filled bio, and a real story. From Arni the koala to Pepita the parrot, your sponsorship makes a real difference in their daily lives – from food to vet care to long-term sanctuary upgrades.
Why This Matters:
Koalas like Arni are now endangered in many parts of Australia.
Rising costs of care, rehabilitation, and habitat restoration are stretching wildlife centres thin.
Your recurring donation helps us provide consistent care and long-term planning.
This isn’t charity fluff. This is real, tangible help – dressed up with a bit of humor and heart to reach more people who can make a difference.
💛 Ways You Can Help:
Sponsor an animal for as little as $10/month
Share your Lonely Fan’s story on socials to help raise awareness
Gift a sponsorship to a friend who loves animals.
Become a Lonely Fan today. Because no one should be this wild and alone.
