Mickey - Female U2 age unknown. DNA test came back...he is a SHE,

SO I'm getting ready for work this morning, and I'm kind of depressed over the whole Logan adoption thing.....

I feed Mickey and let him out for cuddles..... usually he isn't extremely happy to go back in the cage, however this morning he went right back in and watched me weirdly.

Well as I'm putting my wrap on to leave, he says as clear as day "mama's goin to work, love you"!

He has been practicing something under his breath for a couple of weeks, and this must be it! I say it to him every morning on my way out the door.

I had to smile:D

He is a sweetheart!:D

I am hoping to teach him..."Uh Oh, Mama's gonna be mad" I would love to see my husbands face the first time he said it:white1:

One reason that birds get so into our hearts is the fact that they are the only animals that can communicate with us in our own language. When that breakthrough comes, it's like nothing else. And isn't their mumbled practicing adorable?

That's cute! I hope he learns it.

He gets this look everytime either he drops something or my husband makes a noise or drops something...it looks like he would like to say Uh Oh, Mama's gonna be mad, so I'm just trying to give him the words to go with the look.;)

I love it! Sometimes I'll say what did you say? and he'll mumble the same thing again.....so I just say oh well mickey that's nice....lol, my luck that will be the next thing he says.

That is so very cute , lolol. It's funny how they pick on on our habits that they can tell when we are leaving or going to bed. Way to go Mickey !

I've told Merlin 1000x that she's a good girl. She hasn't said that, but now she's saying, "Oh, I hurt!" I don't think I've said that out loud more than once or twice:D

That's so cute! With his previous owner, Puck would say "b*tch b*tch b*tch" when she would get off the phone, because she often said it them. I've never heard him say it though, haha.

He looked like he was just waiting for me to grab my wrap...waiting for just the right moment....lol He probably will never say it again.

It's funny what they pick up! He doesn't say nite nite or bye bye which he hears everyday, but I was calling Noel for her dinner the other night, and he said kitteh and chuckled under his breath......Now that is a word I have only used once or twice as I usually say Kitty. Oh and he recognized that Noel is indeed a kitteh...lol
