I really need help- Ellie the U2

This is my first thread on here. I see my mommy(the unfeathere one) on here all the time, But I thought I would try all the one's that mommy uses. I really am afraid. My name is Ellie, I am an umbrella cockatoo. Please read below and all my feathered friends please tell me what to do!

Okay I heard mommy talking about her having to fix the feather's on her hair for a wedding? she is in this weekend. I didn't understand. Anyways she told me she had to figure out how to do her feathers for the wedding (any of you guys know what a wedding is? she says she is in it, I am worried for mommy).
ALL of a sudden she comes up to talk to me and FOR THE LOVE OF GOD some big purple round things were in her hair, and shinny things holding them in. Mommy said that they were called hot rollers, and they will make her pretty??? I liked the way she looked before! I am soo afraid! When she walked up to me I freaked. It looked like something was hurting her!
Please all my too friends help!! I know I have been a little naughty lately cause I want a boyfriend (still not sure why my body wants one of them) but that is no reason for me and my mommy to be punished. Please my too friends, let me know what to do or if these "hot rollers" are okay. These things really freaked me out~
All this time I have owned my mommy I have never seen these things try to attack her feathers!
Love Ellie
P.s. my friend Teal the loud blue bird didn't like them either. He was RUNNING!!!

dear ellie.... though i'm not a too, i can assure you that those rollers are not harmful. my mom has ones without the heat, and she looks funny (best part is to fly onto her head from behind and pull them out). i'm sure you mom will be fine.
but since we're talking about weird things - my mom sometimes shows up with that white stuff all over her face - i have no idea what it is, and it makes her look real freaky. any ideas?
can't help you with the guy thing, sweetie - you're in a different size class than me.

cheers, valo

Well our Mom wears one of things that she lays on the couch or her lap that we usually poop on ... don't know why she would put one of those things on her head! Can't help you with the purple creatures, but good luck with that.

Ellie, your mom is just preening. They do that. A lot of the Dads do that too if they haven't lost their feathers. Wait until you see how pretty she looks when she's all ready. You and Teal will be pleasantly surprised.

Oh the white stuff freaks me out, but My mom usually wears the blue color. My mom tells me everything ans she said it was to help make her pretty (I already thought she was pretty!) and to make those little red bumps on her face (the ones I try to take off for her, also those brown things mommy calls moles) to go away! I just don't get these humans. I don't think it will hurt them, but I don't like the way the stuff looks!


On another forum I am on my friend Sydnee (she is a too also) said that mommy might come up to me one day with paint on her face and spiders on her eyes!!!! G I fear for my mommy's safety! But Sydnee also said that after this thing the humans call a "wedding" that mommy will be back to her old self.
For the boyfriend thing, my body is telling me I have to, but I don't have any other too boys around me. Mommy tells me 50 times a day that I don't want a boyfriend and that "boys are bad"! I don't understand why she says that as there are 4 featherless boys in my house. There is only 1 featherless girl and that is mommy. I do notice that she yells at all these boys though!

Thank you for replying,
Love always,
Ellie

Poppy and Ziggy,

Ellie,
Rexy and Tequila here. We be bappies, so we not type goods yet.

I knowed that you was scared, but could you please tells us more about these things? Her heads fedders were wrapped around thems? Can I gets some for my Mommy? Her fedders are very long. They comes to what she calls her waste (same word she uses for what we do withs halfs our pellets. How that word mean such different things we not sure).

She leaves each day to go to what she calls "work". When she comes home, she may have fedders up or down. If she tied it up in knots, she undoes them so I don'ts "give her more holes in her ears" than she has. Her fedders get tangley and my foots get stuck. That no fun.

She not wears stuff on her face either. Once she did wears stuffs on her eyes. It looked pretty... but tasted very ungood. She not like it when I try to eat it... it was stuck to her eye fedders and I was trying to help her gets it off.

I is so unappreciated for trying to help.

Can you send us pictures of your Mommy looking all pretty for the wedding? I wonders if wedding is like work... theys both starts with same sound.

hi Rexy and Tequila,
I will get some pictures of my mommy for you. Even though she is at work today she isn't feeling good. My unfeathered little brothers thursday, mom said middle of the night were throwing up with flu?? Not sure but momy wasn't to happy.

My mommy used to have long head feathers also, the waist like you said, but shortly after she got me she had them all cut off and she gave them to a place called "locks of love". Not sure what that is but mommy said her feathers were going to go to another unfeathered person who can't grow feathers or lost all theirs becasue they were sick. All this stuff is so confusing to me. But it must make sense to mommy because she seemed okay with it.

I will try to get you pictures soon. Mommy says she is old fashioed as she doesn't like digital cameras? She like to wait for them....OOOOOHHHH for such a smart bird I do play stupid good sometimes. She will be gone all day. I will miss her so much and she said she will miss me too
