Awwww - I definaltly want one too.. How ironic Lulu - your ****atiel was called "bubba" thats what my dp and I call each other, he calls me big bubba and I call him extra large bubba ... now we just need a birdy bubba and a baby bubba, my darling DD is called Junior bubba
Ours is actually called Bubbalouie - quite a character! I remember getting a bit miffed one day when he whistled at my friend! I thought I was his one and only .
I just sent the poor bugger up to Dp's. He wasn't getting enough attention here, I couldn't have him fly with the little kids about. FIL had a ****atoo for about 20 years before he died so he is thrilled to have another bird again. He was trying to take a phone message yesterday but Bubba kept flying off with the pen, so cute.
LOL, Lulu, Bubbalouie sounds like a charmer
There's no way Lenny would eat spaghetti or tea! He likes carrot, but only if fed to him by hand and enjoys snuggling up to DH and blowing kisses. I'm not often treated so affectionately but when I am it is a real treat
WLB, you know my thoughts already, but I thought I might ask how much you and your DP are at home? If you work long hours it might be a nice idea to have two.
When I started working full time I used to worry for Lenny getting lonely. But by then he had been on his own for a couple of years (I had been studying and would spend my uni afternoon "study time" with him out of his cage and talking to him when he'd let me) and I was told by a vet friend that he was probably too old to appreciate a friend - he'd probably be more resentful than anything else.
Lula - Bubbalouie sounds great, I am glad he is keeping your FIL company, I love thats pets keep everyone company
Snacks : I have decided to go with two, as we have the room for a nice aviary, that is well preotected from wind, etc, and I like the idea of birds being out in the fresh air chirping away, we will def bring them inside to get used to us, we are home heaps, we have a burmese cat, who is a treasured part of the family, so we are always around.. HMMM Cats and ****atiels, oh Millie is a woos - she ran from a bird the other day
I am def going to suggest the Bubba "louie" type theme in naming our new additions
Maybe Bubbateile
