Kiwi is like a feathered puppy!

It was so cute last night when my husband got home. He gave Kiwi a kiss and said hello to him when he walked through the door, but was a meanie and forgot to take his little buddy with him when he went to change out of his work clothes. Well, Kiwi would not stand to be forgotten! Since he has learned how to climb over the seed guard of his cage, he climbed down and waddled as fast as a parrot could to the bedroom and climbed up onto the footboard of the bed. After my husband was all changed he started walking to the door and calling Kiwi to come, so he scuttled down the footboard and followed him right to the bathroom for a shower. I wish I had my camera because it was SO adorable. Just his whole look of "I'm coming, don't worry, Kiwi is on his way":D He was like a little feathered puppy.

I just wanted to scoop him up and give him so many kisses for being so cute. However, valuing having 5 fingers on each hand, I just let him run around after his daddy instead:09:

I truly hope and wish ALL Amazon lovers would read this, especially those who have rescued theirs, because it TRULY shows how they are capable of loving someone back so VERY VERY much. :D

I now have the sudden urge to go snuggle both of mine.

Since I didn't get any photos or videos of Kiwi's beyond adorable behavior last night, I just felt the need to include this other, absolutely adorable image of him hanging out on my leg the other day instead:) Oh, and a picture of Lucy the DYH my mom sent me the other day just sitting there in the kitchen being pretty. DYHs are just sooooooo pretty you know. No reason I feel I need to include these photos, especially nothing to do with Jen and Rosie or anything;)

We were not able to go over Friday cause Jeanne at the shelter was sick, we are heading over this Friday.... shall have an update then, but I have a fear she is gonna try to convince me to take a goffin that has been there for a while. She keeps talking about him to me, almost like subconscious suggestion.... you want Corey, you want Corey, you want Corey :) but I don't want Corey!!!! Hes a cutie, but one too for me is plenty!! :) I thought I would want an umbrella one day (rescue of course), but seeing how Ivory reacted to Folger being home, I don't think I could do that to her... and considering he's a bird I don't play with, just talk to him and such...

Tell Kiwi to send subliminal birdie messages to Rosie to tell Jeanne he has to come home with me... :) I'll let ya know on Friday if Kiwi had any luck!

and for the photos, I think you just wanted to show off your leg :) I know the guys here wanted to thank you :)

Your mom's DYH is beautiful, they are just one of the prettiest birds in my opinion...

I tease my mom that I will fly home, break in and steal Lucy in the dead of night. My mom may feel otherwise, but Lucy is MY bird. She belongs with ME:D She is the whole reason I ever ended up with Kiwi. I missed her so much, I decided I just couldn't live without a bird (even better if it were a zon). Lucy is much more subdue than Kiwi (probably her age) and lets only me pet her (and she is very very soft). But Kiwi is my special little guy who will just do the funniest things and makes the funniest noises.

Awww so sweet, Bosley is like a feathered puppy too. Except he flies room to room. I can't even escape to the bathroom and he needs to fly 3 sharp turns to get there lol.
