I really hope that cat is de-clawed... And even if it is that's just horrible.

I can't see letting that go on either. But the GCC appears to have all his flight feathers... why doesn't he fly off?

well some times they might just be in a bad mood...I remember my parakeet wanted to pick a fight with me when I was only trying to transfer him from one hand to another...and fought pretty hard against a slow moving hand trying to get him to step up...almost to the point that I thought he was gonna hurt himself..as I recall he was on my other hand for about 2 hours roosting on it... :)

I suppose the bird was used to being clipped or was trying to establish dominance

er...I'm trying to find stuff that I eat hat my budgie can too,since he seems too intent on doing it...i've given some stuff with high fructose corn syrup to my parakeet a few times(pop rocks candy pieces that's too small to have the "pop"),along with things with a bit of slightly sugary stuff..(like the outside bread of poptart)...and i try to keep it in only a few bites if I do but...even I cant think think this is ok..(ive even given a [url]drop[/url]of Pepsi to my budgie before too,when he are my spicy lunch once and he didnt like it despite the sugar,but I'd never let him drink like this >.<)

I'm adding myself to this list for what I've done to Truman. It was absolutely inexcusable and completely my fault. I am going to have to adjust my method and I will report how I can make amends in the future. I am relieved that he's going to be ok.

I don't know how many men will find this idiotic, maybe they might be a little jealous of this bird!
