Tommy and his pet Kiwi

.

Just to update you that everything is going wonderfully since we brought our little Quaker home this spring. Little Kiwi is stealing our hearts of course!!!

She and Tommy (8 years old) are becoming great pals and he is taking wonderful care of her, no worries at all. She gives kisses, dances, and loves to laugh. When she wants out of her cage, she whistles, "woot-woo" until someone opens her door. Is she smart or what?! One of her favourite things is sitting on Tommy's shoulder when he is playing on the computer.

We bought Kiwi a Happy Hut, for sleeping in and she loves it. We found it at Petcetera in the States recently. It is a cute little fleecy triangle canopy that is very cozy.

I mix her food 80% pellets to 20% seeds, but the stinker eats all the seeds and likes to leave the pellets. Should I try changing her pellets or just ride out the stubborness? Ha ha, trying to out stubborn a Quaker. I don't think it would be possible.

Thank you again for doing all of that driving and meeting us in Calgary. We couldn't be happier with our little bird and she is the center of attention. Her cage is open more than it is closed and in the mornings, she loves to sit out on the covered in deck and listen to all of the sounds of the country.

We will definitely keep in touch!
Hope all is well at the aviary.
