This young animal lover accepted nothing less than getting permission from his mum to care for a ‘cold’ bird.
Jensen Pallant, three, from Chelmsford, Essex, spotted the bird on the way home after shopping with family.
When he noticed the bird looked a little worse for wear he managed to convince his mum, Paula, 26, to help the poor pigeon get back on its feet.
They compromised on making a warm box for it to live outside, fit with leaves, a blanket and grass to keep the bird warm.
