And under a pasta strainer? :S I have to admit that was not the story I expected to hear when I went into work the other day!
Seems that one of my coworkers happened to rescue a budgie the other day. His cat and another were fighting over this bird he thought was dead, but after getting it away from the cats it jumps up in his hand, certainly not dead! It's kind of hilarious how he never thought he'd ever get a bird and is becoming rapidly attached to this little one. While he was at work he sent a friend out to buy Freebird (the budgie's new name) a cage and some food, but until then it lived under a pasta strainer so the cat couldn't get at it
Yeah... Not sure how often people find random parrots, but I find this one a pretty impressive tale of coming home~
