It’s, well, it’s a Morty rant… hard to describe. Morty has issues… a lot of issues, and he’s not holding back in his September Beneath the Cage Grate column! Best head over there now – be prepared to laugh out loud… best not to be drinking or eating anything while reading 🙂

Sometimes, you have to go undercover to carry out a successful recognizance mission. This is just what Morty did in order to find out what Alexa and the bots were conspiring at their top secret Bot Convention.
In the March ’23 edition of Beneath the Cage Grate, Morty finds out more than he wants to know about his botmates, find out what happens and who Alexa has in her sights!

Oh dear, poor Morty’s mum has a bonsai heist (and sale) going on right under her own nose. Morty has designs on ‘his’ windowsill and he’s prepared to go to great lengths to secure it!
Catch up with Morty here to find out how his planned sale of mum’s bonsai trees goes spectacularly sideways!

Happy December 1st Everybirdie!
It’s that time of year when all the good little birdies & bots prepare their Christmas letters and wish lists for Santa. And oh yes, Morty has been busy finalizing his wish list and eavesdropping on those of his botmates.
Morty’s mom has collected everyone’s letters & wish lists and is graciously sharing with everybirdie! Read Morty’s and his botmates’ Christmas wish lists here!

Oh dear, poor Morty’s attempts at preparing the perfect Thanksgiving dinner is thwarted, again, by his bot-mate Alexa.

Most gardens are quiet spaces where birds flutter about and the flowers grow in beautiful silence… this is not the case in Morty’s mum’s garden it seems.
Besieged by plant marauders and flying monsters, Alexa and Roomba attempt another garden battle with some mischievous critters.
This edition is definitely one for the history books! Head on over to the September ’21 Beneath the Cage Grate column and prepare to laugh along with Morty over the latest garden skirmishes!

Morty has definitely outdone himself with his July’ 21 Beneath the Cage Grate column!
This issue has everything that Morty’s fans could ask for – silly bots, garden trespassers, chatty birds and a free-wheelin’ human!
This issue will surely tickle everybirdie’s funny bone.

Here it is folks, the interview everybirdie has been waiting for! Morty travels to the UK to perch down with the 5 Cursing Parrots of Lincolnshire Park. In this in-depth investigative report, Morty uncovers the truth behind how the group managed to get into so much trouble.
