We're (hopefully) in the first stages of fostering a CAG from a UK based company. In getting Bobby who my hubby adores. As do I. We found this rescue place through a mutual friend. And he's fallen (so has she) in love with an 8 year old female...

I don't know if the process will work in our favour but he's really got his hopes up that the home visit and our treatment (even though I'm so new at it) will go in our favour. And the bird in question was not afraid of me (where she doesn't take to many women) and was giving him kisses on the first date, lol....

I will keep you informed. But after seeing her and how wonderful she is. I would not think of buying a baby, (which we did) where there are so many wonderful birds who are desperate for a new 'forever home'.

I am so happy to be learning and be part of a family I never thought would accept me. Bobby is so wonderful. And even though his last family rehomed him because they got a baby CAG. We will not do that. We'll integrate them so they learn to accept and love each of us.

Good luck! I will send good energy your way and hope all goes well!
 
Welcome!

Nice story, we'd love to hear more and see pics! :)
 
Wonderful, wonderful news!!! I will keep my fingers crossed that everything works out smoothly for you. :)

You sound SO excited, and I completely understand why! :D
 
Will keep you posted. Thanks I know my hubby is really excited. I'm a little more cautious, as she's got a bigger beak than Bobby and I know she's nipped the SH owner. I guess I will just have to win her over with food. :) Any tips for getting a male bonded bird to accept a woman or am I wasting my time? Will me giving her the treats all the time help?
 
We've been back to see her again today. She was regurgitating food for hubby... and was trying to do a mating dance at him, which he didn't encourage.

Fingers crossed, as she's a cracking sense of humour. Paul has a bad cough at the moment and she was copying him. lol
