πŸͺ΅Can perches be enrichment? 🧠🧩 YES!

Perches that are smooth and bark-free are practical for sure. But textured perches provide better grip. And bark can provide SO MUCH FUN for your bird.

These half-moon basswood perches with the bark on (from ) are a beautiful and also really entertaining addition to my macaw's enclosure. The perch in the picture is BRAND NEW. lt doesn't look that nice for long but he really enjoys chewing off the bark and then making toothpicks out of the rest of it over several weeks. BEST TOY EVER!

🐾 There is no companion like a dog. πŸ€πŸ–€

I don't mean they are better than people. Though some dogs are better than some people.

I don't mean every dog. They are all individuals and it's normal to connect more to some than others.

But this dog, my dog, Rex, is tuned in to my every move and is more aware of my body language, mood, and even my intentions than I myself am. It's hard to believe there was a time when we first brought him home that I couldn't connect with him. I couldn't envision a life with him in it. I wasn't even sure we would keep him. He came with a lot of baggage. But today I cannot imagine my life without him.

He is my tether to nature. A daily reminder to pay attention, to live in the present, to connect with loved ones, to feed him ☺️. We humans live our lives superficially most of the time. We move too quickly, we focus on tomorrow instead of now, we are easily inconvenienced, quick to judge, slow to forgive. We could all use reminders from a dog.

You may already know that I am absolutely fascinated by (obsessed with?) birds. But as far as a true companion - there is none that compare to a dog. It's not really something you can put into words, but if you know, you know. 🐾

🦜🧠 Enrichment can be SIMPLE.

Here's a GREAT foraging produce called a Parrot Pocket. It is a simple design but SO effective. A sewn leather pocket (parrot safe!) with holes for a bird to reach through as they forage for *insert your preference here*.

I've hidden treats, pellets, toy parts, edible flowers, foliage and more in these for my birds. They ALL love it from budgies to macaws. They are long-lasting and can be refilled at least a few times for heavy chewers and many many times for others.

To make it even more challenging, I slipped a sheet of paper into the parrot pocket pictured so the bird could not SEE the hidden treats and had to just investigate the object out of curiosity first.

Hope this gives you some inspiration for providing unique and simple enrichment for the birds in your care today.

When it feels so good, your eyes roll back! πŸ™ƒ

June, pictured above, really enjoyed hanging out in the yard during a rare snow day ❄️ in Houston. The warmth of the sun with the cool winter air was just divine. After many days indoors due to πŸ₯Ά freezing temps, this fresh air was much appreciated. πŸ₯°

One of my favorite clients ❀️ recently stayed with us for several weeks and he was a bit different...

As a professional pet caretaker and trainer one of the biggest challenges I face is convincing clients that a healthy DIET is the KEY to a happier, healthier pet. This is true of any species - parrots, dogs, cats, bunnies.

To be totally honest, most diet advice is not taken seriously. πŸ˜” BUT those clients that DO make changes are heavily rewarded πŸ‘ with a pet that is happier and more cooperative, less destructive, more even-tempered, and those who were not eager to move around much are suddenly much more active.

Chip, a 10 year old Maltese whom we are quite attached to, recently had a major change in his diet. He is more alert and active, no longer picky about his food, no longer shows discomfort after going on a walk, and now boasts a distinct waistline πŸ˜‰. It's like watching him come alive. We could not be happier for this kid. πŸ₯°

πŸ€” What's a healthy diet? Well, that depends on the species. Lots of raw veggies are great for parrots, but dogs need meat too in their diet and cats do not need any veggies in theirs. Do your research, use your common sense and start making changes.

🧠 Here's Something to Think About: Kibble/pellets are a highly processed food very similar to breakfast cereals or potato chips. What if cereal was your primary (or only) food course? How would you feel? How healthy do you think you would be? Question the norm and find a veterinarian that will support your goals.
