Realizing at 3am while you're peeing that your parrot has shredded your last roll of toilet paper.

Yes, this happened last night,

I want to hear your bird related "there's nothing like".
Ready. Set. Go!

Realizing that running water is a deity to your parrotlet and is her first love, and that you are "second fiddle." :eek::rolleyes:
Trying to get Pacos foot back through the cage bars , after she somehow manages to stick it through there and she is terrified and squawking and screeching ! Of course you need to do this while she is scared, biting , and trying to do it herself, without hurting her . All in a days work I guess ?

Trying to get your bird in the cage when your already late for work and having them stubbornly clamp their feet around your finger as tight as they possible can.
Letting your p'let chew the label off a pill bottle and arriving at work with tiny pieces of it stuck to your shirt.:rolleyes:
That special shoulder surprise, even though you can't even remember giving shoulder time that morning!
When you get home from work, take him out and ask him for a kiss but he nips you with a mean kiss like he's so peed off because he's trying to find something he's not allowed to play with anymore (still the spray cleaning bottle even though I got a different one).

There is nothing like bending over next to the kitchen table and picking up a dozen or so bottle caps off the floor when, all of a sudden, Bogie decides it would be funny to push the salt shaker onto the back of my neck and salt goes all over me and the floor because the lid came off.

He then lowered his head and spread his wings while chirping at me. My wife saw this and had to change her PJ's because she was laughing so hard.( she couldn't hold it in) I didn't think it was funny.....:(
Having to remove all jewelry from everybody when they enter the house to keep Jules from eating it. So far mom is down 2 necklaces and an earring, my wife will not tell me how many of my past gifts to her have been lost to Jules beak of death's vice grip. :eek:

Maybe it's because you named him Jules. :D
there's nothing like...

....that little pile of bird poop behind the laptop monitor :eek:

I'm just glad my dog doesn't perch on my monitor too :rolleyes:

I'm sorry, David....but I almost had to go change my pants I was laughing so hard at this description of Bogie. He was clearly laughing at you, the little stinker! :p
Anyone who doesn't think animals can laugh has never been laughed at by a parrot. If you think your bird is torturing you on purpose...they are! :D
Mrs. JP3 has a good point on the name! Ollie does the same if I'm wearing more than normal stuff.
For a positive spin...

There's nothing like hearing Fifer happily chirp away to Nichi now that the quarantine is over. :)
Awe how sweet! She's probably saying, "look how cute mom thinks I am when I chirp at you, I'm the favorite."

That's totally something she would say.

Yesterday she decided to hang out in her travel carrier that was resting on Nichi's cage. The travel carrier that we have to force her in to, in the pet room that she despises. I am sure she was bragging that she got to have play time and Nichi was stuck inside her cage.

I wish I were that lucky!!! I'm trying to get Melody used to her little travel cage, its horrible! She will sit on the side and the top. She will eat millet out of my hand while I'm holding it inside the cage. She will hang upside down to get the millet on the bottom while she's still on the side. As soon as I try to get her in and if I can get the door closed she forgets about the millet and frantically runs back and forth clacking at the bars with her beak trying to get out.
:(
Oh :( Fifer tolerates this one once she's in it. Have you tried a different style?

I gave up on jewelry a long time ago. Lol
