Discovered a weird thing about Sakura

[aether-drifter]

So I've discovered that if I start stroking Sakura's foot, she immediately stops moving and just...SITS there. I think she likes it, but it has such a strange effect I'm not sure! She can be in hyperactive play mode, beaking my hands, and I stroke the foot then bam, instant bird statue. Eventually it wears off, but the results are pretty consistent.

Just thought it was a funny quirk! Not sure if it's a cockatoo thing, a galah thing or just a Sakura thing.

Don't know if other toos would do what Sakura does, but Ivory is freaky about her feet, she hates having them touched. She was on my shoulder tonight and I am wearing a V neck sweater with a tank under it, the sweater kept sliding from her weight and I grabbed it to pull it back and up and she screamed like something was eating her feet. Even just something that rubs against them she acts like she is under attack. We think her feet may have been grabbed or held in her previous home when she did not behave or they thought they were training her.

I wish she did what Sakura did

My Percy loooves 'footie rubs' and will hold out a foot if I say the words. Even if he's sitting on my lap, he likes it if I rub the tops of he's feet, sits very still and fluffs up and even once started dozing off.
