Dear Cappuccinistis,
happy TGIF!
Five months after our dog died, my daughter and I decided to add two new members to the Castle Statalicious family:
View attachment 38651
Ladies and Gentlemen, I present you with Läila (Layla), the parakeet in blue, and Carlos, the parakeet in green. Princess Statalina named them.
My daughter is just crazy about both of them and has played with them all evening. Tomorrow we will let them out of the cage and let them fly some in her bedroom, with the windows closed, of course.
They are both sweet birds and have already taken to riding on my finger and letting both of us lightly pet them.
Not the same as a dog, but nice, nonetheless.
How neat......I'm sure little Stat will have many hours of fun playing with the parakeets. They are easy to care for pets....as long as you don't have cats.
Nope, no four-legged felines in the house!
I say that because we used to have parakeets. We cut their wings so they wouldn't fly away, in case they ever got out, but one time one of the kids opened the cage and one of them immediately flew out and landed on the floor. I remembered immediately that we had a cat and was reaching down to grab the bird, but the damn cat, out of nowhere pounced upon it and quickly snapped him up....kids were crying....sad...ending....
