Ha.

Please help! After two long years of being on a waiting list for a hand-fed baby cockatoo, we were finally notified by the breeder that at long last, our number has come up, and…WE'RE HAVING A BIRD!

We must IMMEDIATELY get rid of our children now, because we just KNOW how time-consuming our new little bird is going to be! Since our cockatoo will be arriving on Monday, we MUST place the children in new homes this weekend!!!

They are described as: One male, white, blonde hair, blue eyes. Four years old. Excellent disposition. He doesn't bite. Name is Tommy. Temperament tested. Current on all shots. Tonsils removed already and very healthy condition! Tommy eats everything, is very clean, house trained and gets along well with others. Does not run with scissors, and with a little time and training, he will do well in a new home.

One female, brown hair, brown eyes. Three years old. Can be surly at times. Non-biter, thumb sucker. Her name is Mary. Temperament tested, but needs a little attitude adjusting occasionally. She is current on all shots, tonsils out, and is very healthy and happy (mostly). Gets along well with little boys, but does not like to share toys. She is house trained, and would do best in a one child household.

We really LOVE our children, and want to do what is best for them. I hope you understand, that ours is a UNIQUE situation, and we have a real emergency here! They MUST be placed by Sunday night at the latest.

Congratulations on your new addition! I must advise you, just because you are now adding a baby bird to your family, this does not give you the right to dispose of your children so quickly. I'm sure that if you work at it very hard, the baby bird can be trained to accept your children for what they are(children) and learn to live together peacefully. Good luck in this new endeavor! LOL
