He's giving his bird away free to anyone who buys his car. What a dope!

breaks my heart - he looks so cute.....
(i have my doubts about the 200 words though)

sometimes i wonder why it's a crime to hurt people - just a few whips could get some sense into this guy *anger*

Yeah I doubt the 200 word thing too. I just don't know how you could trade your animals like their nothing and probably to someone who knows nothing about birds and might not take care of him. I told Evan I think we should call him, lol. Tiffany

I don't get that either - every day when I look at Valo, my heart warms up (to a lesser extent if he nips ). I wouldn't be able to let this little guy go whatever situation I'd be in... and for somebody to just treat their bird like an accessory cup-holder is something I don't comprehend. And on top you might send it to a horrible place... humans!
In addition, do you think it makes it easier to sell the car? I'd doubt that because not that many people really want a parrot... except if he runs into a bird lover.
Would be great of you to contact him - sure Doyle would love him and you'd have a large flock in no time... (and maybe a slightly grumpy Evan)
I have to say I thought about that too, but we're good for now...

Oh no more birds for awhile, Evan would go nuts, lol. Once we buy our own house than we will definitley have a bird room to fill with a couple more! I just want to call and ask him how could he! And you're right, it would make it more difficult to sell the car.

I didn't call him, but I just e-mailed him (I'm in Dallas, and the ad stated this guy is in Carrollton, which is a suburb) and asked him why he was giving the bird away. I'll post his reply, if and when he provides one...
