10 Reasons Not To Buy A Bird

[jenseits]

I recently wrote a guest post for a pet blog by some friends of mine. The topic is 5 things to consider before getting a bird. I didn't want to make it too long, and it's pretty basic since the audience is mostly cat- and dog-lovers. Is there anything really important I forgot to mention?

I'd love it if you could take a look and leave some comments! (If only to show support from the bird contingent... most pet blogs are so canine and feline centric).

I think it's great you posted this. A lot of people get a bird and think "its just a bird." When in reality, any bird, big or small, budgie to parrot needs CONSTANT care. Being a parront is great and I think many people jump into it, not knowing what to expect and that isn't good.

Kudos to you for posting this and giving people knowledge on what they're in for.
