I hope I haven't insulted anyone by that title. Its not meant to. Its just that until 6 months ago when my friend got male and female B&Y Macaws, which at the time I thought he'd gone of his rocker for doing, did I realize what amazing pets/friends they make. I really had no idea Aves could be so much fun to have around. I fell in love with the female (Luna), as she has done with me. She won't leave me alone for one minute when I go to visit. We lie on the bed and she rolls on her back to have her tummy tickled and tucks her head deep between my shoulder and head and loves French kissing!!! Her partner (Sol) although he gives me kisses as well, limits me to only that. I'm not allowed to touch him as his owner, my friend is.
Anyway, what i'm trying to get at is that this has opened up a whole new world for me. I've laways had cats and still do have 3 of 'em, but thanks to Sol & Luna, have ended up with a 4 month old Green Winged Macaw which in the 10 days I've had him is repidly becoming very close to my heart. I spent half of today buying him toys and all the things I know he loves, and doesn't so much love to eat, to make sure he grows into an even bigger healthy boy than the monster already is! Heck, i've even given up my office space for him, moved the pc and everything into the living room, so he can have his own private room, deched out with branches I collected from the woods and more toys than he can distroy in a day!
I'm nervous as hell, cos i've jumped in right at the deep end, but at least I have my friend and his B&Y's to help me get things right, but loving every minute of this fantastic new relationship with Dino
A load of babble, but needed to say it :-)
