Sootie- Yellow-sided GCC
I'm on a short break back home in England for the week for a friend's wedding (my baby is boarding at the vet's...sob!). While I'm here I figured I would get Sootie's cage sorted for when I move back permanently in September.

I'm wondering if any UK bird owners have any recommendations for cage websites...I have found some on ebay but I'm unsure whether to trust online dealers...in part because they seem to be half the price of in-store cages! I'm located near Liverpool so if anyone knows of reasonably priced shops in the area do let me know also!

I am not in the UK, but here in the states I have had many friends order cages online, and may do it myself in the future. Because of how retail functions, it is normal for online stores to be quite a bit cheaper. I suggest finding the cage and company you want to go for, and then searching online for reviews about them. I like to look for more 4-5 star ratings than 1-2 star ratings, and look at how they deal with returns, just in case you are not satisfied.

Most manufactures websites can tell you where a local retailer is in several countries.

I second the recommendation for Scarlett's. Good selection, cheap prices, and excellent customer service! :)

And if you're looking for a cage that's not on their website, give them a ring or drop them an email, and they might be able to order it in for you :)

Thanks for the help! I actually ended up getting this great huge cage from WaterWorld for just £170

She won't know what to do with all that space! I am excted to find this Scarlett's website though because I haven't found a shop yet that sells harrison's or even decent parrot toys. Will make a big order to be delivered in time for moving day :D
