Yes, whoever had Jingle and Yeti gave them a lot of love...sort of. They were in a need of a bath when they came in to the shop and Jingle had a lot of feathers that needed preening on his head. I just got finished with the job a few nights ago. But they are really friendly. They also answer questions logically so it seems whoever owned them loved them a certain degree. They were on seed diets but both have tried pellets. Jingle eats the pellets Yeti flings the pellets and my dog Chevy eats them. (At least they aren't going to waste.) Yeti is better at eating fruit and veggies than Jingle is.
