My poor wee guy I "rescued"

Yesterday I got a facebook message from my "friend". She asked me if I wanted to have another bird. I rescued Alex of her. He was in such a terrible condition.

Anyway she didn't want him anymore as he didn't start talking. He was too noisy and he was "evil". She said if I didn't take him she would feed him to the neighbours cat (I wasn't sure if she was joking or not).

When I went to go and pick him up he was walking around their yard. The neighbours cat was there and it looked like it was going to make a nice snack out of the poor boy

So I chased the cat away, of course they laughed it me.
She told me I could have the pest if I could catch him. I caught him, it was too hard as he was clipped.

When I was there she told me that he was
Hand Raised
18months old
Evil and hates everyone
Bites A lot
Feed on an all sunflower seed diet

I did try and educate her last time she gave me her bird(Alex my Alexandrine). Some of it did seem to get through to her. This boy looks in pretty good condition. He has some shredded tail feathers though.

But Ive now convinced her (i hope) to not get another bird. I did remind her about the SPCA and animal abuse. I also took away her "bird supplies", this included his cage, all his food, 1 perch. He had no toys. But his food and cage was very tidy. Much better than what Alex's was.
I'm still going to keep a close eye on her though.
I really hope she doesn't get another bird.

Anyway he has been here for two days now and he is such a sweet heart. She loves to be scratched around his head. He loves his beak being scratched. He also loves to be on his back.

Ill post some pics of him soon, it's bad quality as I took them of my phone.

Aw he's adorable! Thank you for saving him, I can't beleive how awful some people can be.

He is such a handsome little guy. If he lays in your hand, I'm assuming he warmed up to you?

Oh... thank you so much to taken this little guy...

He's beautiful...

I know how can people be like that?

He has warmed up to me. He seems very happy but sometimes he seems very wary of people. It seems that he wants to be with you but hes not too sure about it.

And thank you

He does need a name as he last owner gave him a name but it's not the nicest, well appropriate name.

How about ole yeller.lol Or just Blue, I like the name and it is a perfect fit.

That baby don't look to evil to me, laying in you hand like that. I hope she don't get any more pets. Take care of him.

Aww.... glad he has a good home. After reading this, I am hopeful my newly adopted 2 YO will trust me. And she was never abused...maybe she is stubborn?!

Ya, blue, but with a twist, like Blu or Bleu. Hehe I sound crazy. Ummm..

I like Solo, though I'm prety sure there's another blue ringneck named Solo on this forum.

OK, I'm sorry, but you have to name him Bottle. Or better yet, Balls!

Oh I know, Mojo-jojo! Like the evil monkey from power puff girls(my sister was addicted to that show as a kid), I would have named Sully that(he is evil) but I liked the name Sully which is what he came to me with.

He is such a cutie.....So glad you rescued him. I can't believe the way some people treat their animals.

He is such a cutie.

I love the names you guys are coming up with.

Good for you and thanks. I like the name Azz which is short for azure as in blue. What do you think??

I still like Sky, Skylar or Hope, Lucky for obvious reasons. Thanks so much for rescueing him He is beautiful. Alison and sweetie pie

I was addicted to the PowerPuff Girls too. Ok, not addicted, but It's what I would watch if my favorite show wasn't on.

I love the name Azz but it's to close to my sisters name
I like Azure as well.

All these names are so pretty

I use to always watch powerpuff girls

And so far the little guy doesn't seem to be evil at all. Hes nothing like my friend described.

What a pretty guy..looks just like my Henry. And what an idiot girl...I too hope she does not get any more birds. Grrrr..people like that make me so mad.
