Random Pet Photo of the Day - 2020 - post yours!

[jazzies mum]

On our recent camping trip not all places were welcoming to dogs. Jazz is hot and would like a swim at this swimming hole..................................
She doesn't look comfy does she?

.............we went over the road bridge and approached the water from the other side.....where there was no sign!
And shortly after this photo I realised that she was really looking for a place to so whisked her away up the bank for that one! Can't take em anywhere!

Hm, wonder where the hole in this blanket came from in the first place... I've noticed that Rubie is starting to get clusters of grey hair on her chin

@LizbeliThey all hurt when they bite but my yellow nape and Cockatoo have the worst bites with that curved bottom beak. Thank goodness Baby doesn’t bite me.

Our tiny little parrotlet gets sadistic pleasure when she bites my fingers. I had her since shortly after she was hatched and tried to socialize her. The store let me visit her every day so I could hold her and talk to her. All to no avail, she never became civilized. Our previous one was a sweetie.

I try to warn new bird owners that getting a hand fed baby is not always the best idea. Most think because they are hand fed they will imprint to you. Unfortunately many find out the hard way that isn’t the case.
Once they mature and hormones kick in their personalities will change and many will become aggressive to their owners. This accounts for so many of them being rehomed multiple times or just abandoned. So very sad when I see this. I had people leaving birds in cages on my doorstep without knowing who they belonged to. It was very frustrating for me. People assume because you have birds that you are a bird guru. That is so not true.
I have rehabbed many and found responsible homes for them.
The best way to find a bird is to look for adult birds and spend time around them. You will find out by handling them if it’s going to work out. I always say birds choose their person instead of you choosing them.

They need lots of attention, room and mental stimulation just like our dobermans.
All my birds have to forage for their food from different containers I fill with pellets and hide around the aviary and they have trees and climbing ropes, bells, swings and PVC tubes that I hide fruits and vegetables in.
I make most of their toys and one of my Cockatoo’s favorite is the domino square. I Velcro dominos to a cloth covered board and she will spend an hour removing and resticking them. She loves stacking building blocks, then knocking them over.

Are you sure you aren't sneaking him in when no one is looking and posting?

 

[Tropicalbri's]

Look at those ears!! They were so wanting to stand. He is gorgeous!!

 

[Lizbeli]

Wow he is really growing. Crazy how time flies by. He has such a kissable face haha.

Rio and his stick we had a great weekend at the lake.

She's such a goofball. There would be a million pics of her like this in my phone if I took one everytime I catch her like this. No this wasn't a moment...she was laying like this for 10 minutes

(excuse the scrap carpet in the basement...the cats looove to play with pieces off the pad )

Same with Albert and that is his preferred way to sleep during the day. He was just waking up here. LOL
Okay I give up on the photo since they just won't upload for me since everyone started working from home.

Edit: it finally worked now that it's after hours.

Really?? Well, that sucks. How about your phone? Can you just take a pic and send from your phone? Or use your phones wifi as a hot spot.

Jasper was rolling around throwing a little fit because he couldn’t reach that red toy. As soon as I asked him what he was doing he froze in place. What a goof.

It's upside down dog day!

I don't bathe these two very often but it was a slow work day yesterday and I needed to do something so ... yesterday was their annual bath day!

Moo was actually pretty pleased with the whole situation. Bathed, nails dremmeled, and toe hairs trimmed


Rubie looks like a maniac because as soon as a cell phone comes out, she starts looking for the reflections on the walls and ceilings
