7 years ago today, I was fated to become a “failed foster” with Misha. I was not looking for a bird and I was actually pretty scared of Moluccan cockatoos, yet I was immediately able to handle Misha. When a bird chooses you and there’s that spark of immediate connection, there is no saying no without lifelong regret. Misha was about 6 years old when we met, and he’s gone through the rowdy adolescent phase surprisingly well (none of the aggression or personality changes that others have documented). He’s gladly accepted a harness so he can go out with me, and he adapts to whatever my schedule is. He is the best bird about choosing and eating healthy foods, and in 7 years he has destroyed less of my house and belongings than Boo does in one year. Misha is the kind of Moluccan cockatoo that makes other people want a Moluccan cockatoo, and I am so fortunate to be his caretaker . #moluccancockatoo #cockatoolove #gotchaday #mishabird #cockatoo #cockatoolife #gotchadayanniversary #7yearsoflove #cockatoos #lifelongcommitment #lifelongcompanion #adoptionanniversary #goodbird #stlpets #stlbirds (at St. Louis, Missouri) https://www.instagram.com/p/CaSZZ4QJjla/?utm_medium=tumblr -- source link
