I am an animal lover too. I worked as an animal trainer at Sea World (Discovery Cove) for awhile. That isn't that popular now after the movie Blackfish. In the town where I live there is a pretty nice little zoo too.

It was. I was there for 6 years. Then I started getting pretty sick and the doctors couldn't figure out why. It was a very physical job so they thought maybe it was just too much. That wasn't the case but I had to leave. I trained a lot of birds too. It is a neat park. We had people come in the water and do dolphin interactions. Guest also fed the birds and swum with stingrays.

Sounds wonderful, I have a friend that trains and raises parrots, I may get one from her one of these days, she deals in rescues as well.

We raised some of the most beautiful Parakeets You ever saw. Just that pretty blue everyone likes. It was a blessing to do./ Or it rocked, your choice.

I have a blue crowned Amazon I raised since she hatched. She was actually suppose to be a zoo bird but she wanted to be a pet. She sings take me out to the ballgame, la cucka rocha (no clue how to spell that) and all sorts of stuff. She too has her moments though, she is a teenager now. Springtime she is a brat because she wants to breed.

My friend is trying to talk me into taking one of her africans, I am just not sure how the dogs will be with it.

Yeah you could maybe try it for a short time and introduce the bird slowly. I had a siberian husky but she saw the bird as a baby and watched it grow. She ignored the bird for the most part. She was 13 and passed. My mom's yorkie doesn't pay it to much attention. I have had people bring there dogs over and they just fixated on the bird. Maybe over time it would have stopped stressing out but I think they wanted bird for dinner.

Yes, she suggested bird sitting a couple days with it at my house to see how it would adjust, longer and longer visits each time, I thought that sounded like a great idea, we are moving late summer I will be doing that after the move so things are settled in first,
Well time to get some family time, see you all later & have a great night:)

o_O The you all are getting is probably what we got all last week. It sucked! I DID manage to dodge most of it on the bike by watching the weather satellites. I only got rained on twice last week. :D

A quick hello here. I've had the worst experience trying to find a new harness for my cat. He outgrew his last one. I found one and it was a walk in. Little did I know cats don't walk in to any thing. I bought one this afternoon hoping it will work. If this one doesn't work I'll have to order online and take a chance.

o_O A harness...for a cat? What's it for? o_O

He likes to go for walks and be tied out like a dog.

o_O I...I've never heard of that. I wouldn't think a cat would do that. Though...I guess I've seen people walk coons, ferrets and my sister used to walk her pig so...ok. I just wouldn't think a cat would cooperate. But I guess it's a good way to get it outside and not letting it get run over or in trouble. :D

Shocking percentage of "founding members" who have voluntarily "moved on" because of the nonsense. What is intriguing is that this tells that the founding philosophy has drastically changed. What will be telling is, those were the people that won the awards for VU. I guess as long as there is a steady influx of newbies...there is no real reason to take care of the veterans.

So should we be begging them to come back?
They don't want to be here.
Fine.
If the want to come back that can and will.
Have some came back under other screen names? Maybe.
Is this their personal recruiting ground for some new 'for profit' "area" that's invite only?
It sure as hell shouldn't be.
No one asked them to leave and no one asked them to stay.
That's called freedom.
