Hello My name is Lizza. I'm an older woman with arthritis. That's just to get you to laughing! I have a brand new Amazon parrot. It was either me take or let some young uncontrolled teenager throw it outside. No one was stopping him I gather his "singing" was too much too handle now that he got his new kitten. HMMM. Well I also have two golden retrievers--large ones. First off he's in cage that I think might just be too small. I got my leather gloves ready and a huge (sort of) stick for him to hop on to let him out. Now he needs some kind of stick to sit on at the top of his cage. I read grape sticks are good? OMG I have seen one parrot in my life! From what I've been told only I'm gathering he's around 13. He apparently had a good home but the woman passed on. I believe he's very safe where I have him. I don't believe safe is all he needs! I can let him out. He's in the main living room that has a closeable door. Right now he's in a partition I have made. The dogs are unable to get to the cage. I will not allow the dogs in when I bring him out. OKAY I need all the hints. I can't just leave this poor thing in his? cage all the time. His name is Henry Hank. But he says Hi Ethel. I haven't heard much else yet. But I'm sure he's scared too death being moved here, been only 2 days now. So, I'm not even sure if I'm really able to keep him or If I need to find him a new home. So far, from photos I have seen he might be a double yellow headed Amazon parrot. He has almost whole head of yellow..Red on wings and blue further down. He's quite beautiful. Oh I'm not very healthy. I worry that it will just get attached then I will also pass on. So any advise please? Thanks so much..And I'm sure if he could Henry Hank would thank you!
