The Roost

Uh oh, a new apartment brings with it a whole new series of adventures and mischief on the part of our intrepid investigator Morty, and his UN-trustworthy bot sidekicks!

Read all about what Morty, Roomba and Alexa have been up to as they explore (and torment) each other and unsuspecting neighbours to the building and park here.

In Sherri’s October 2020 Feathered Frenzy article, she explores how our feathered companions not only provide us with emotional support and comfort, but they also act as important alert systems, warning us of incoming weather, or dangers lurking outside our windows.

Read Sherri’s full article to learn more about how our feathered companions help keep us safe and connected with them, our home environment, and the outside world.

I’ve had fun snatching knickers from clotheslines this summer – seems with more time at home, some humans are doing A LOT more laundry.  I scored some checkered knickers that have a flap in the front.

Check out the September issue of Do Seagulls Get Wedgies to find out what I did with them knickers!

Hee hee, how many times have we parronts found ourselves wondering what our birdies do with the food we give them 🙂

In the September issue of It’s A Birb Thing, Cheeks demonstrates the very- birdie thought process that goes into psyching out her mom!

Oh dear, it seems Morty’s efforts to finally rid his household of his arch nemesis Alexa was thwarted yet again.

Catch up on this month’s issue of Beneath the Cage Grate to find out the lengths, and depths, Morty attempted to finally bid farewell to his annoying roommate.

In her September Feathered Frenzy column, Sherri explores the situations, needs and conditions in which a companion animal becomes an ’emotional support animal’.

Human stress and grief are powerful emotions, and those of us who live with companion birds know that our birds react in a myriad of ways to our emotions.

Read Sherri’s full article to find out more about what constitutes an emotional support animal and how, despite often not formally acknowledged as such, our feathered companions provide us with the solace and comfort we so desperately need in times of grief and stress.
