My Parakeet, Ike, Answered His Own Question Last Night….

@4meAndyou when my cat pouted she would turn her back to me and face the wall and pretend to ignore me but I watched her ears swivel back when I was talking so she could hear me better. Hehe. I told Ike last night he didn’t need to watch us eat and he immediately turned around on his perch and faced the other way. He understands a great deal of what I tell him.

@cherokeepatti He's a funny, funny little guy, isn't he? 🤣

@4meAndyou He is. People don’t realize that even birds can have different personalities. And Boo-Boo is another one. Him telling Sweet Pea “Do it again” after I scolded her for banging the cage door up & down and making a loud racket….I walked out of the room & went into the bedroom to fold clothes on the bed and he says it.

@4meAndyou You know what else Boo-Boo did. I skipped one day cleaning their cages. The next day he starts asking “Will you take care of me?” And he did it about once an hour. I finally cleaned their cages in the afternoon and gave them fresh food & water. A couple of hours later I reminded him saying “I took care of you, I cleaned your cages” and he says “We know it”. Didn’t want to be reminded I guess.

@cherokeepatti Awww. That is absolutely amazing. It must smell bad to them, so that they are asking to be cleaned. But how absolutely sweet.

@4meAndyou it’s only Boo-Boo that tells me he wants me to take care of him.
