Not a dead parrot.......;-0

A wee good news story from very close to home: Roy the parrot and the wean's boyf's amazing mum:

This poor creature became mentally disturbed when shut away in its then owner's garage for THREE YEARS...
Elaine's an animal psychologist and rescued Roy, adopting him into the family home--- where they also have young Milo (also an African Grey they've had since a wee baby) and regularly take in dogs with behavioural problems too.

And yes, both birds talk in a Scottish accent!

Just noticed this!

Good for her well done. Hope the parrot doesnt swear.

Must be a great compassionate family.

Young Milo regularly *attacks* wean's boyf at home, sees him as some kind of male threat or other, according to E.

Roy has apparently taken to piping up, in broad Glaswegian: "Just FECK OFF, Milo..." hahahaHAAAAAAA!

I had NO idea there even was such a person as a parrot psychologist.


What a bastard, that previous owner, though. I can see why he might get upset at the bird shouting out name of previous partner, but, while that might make him want to get rid of it, it is no reason to shove it in a garage without enough food and water.
