Went to a kids birthday party yesterday, friend of my daughter.
It was held at a pet store and they took the kids around and let them love on the dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, etc. They have quite a few birds also. I made what I thought was friends with a Macaw. He/she was talkative in bird talk and was content to sit on my shoulder. Damn bird decided that a better place to be would be on my head. Needed a beak hold and decided to use my ear. Being a young bird I guess he didnt know his own strength as I now have a chunk of flesh missing from my ear. No stitches but I did bleed like a stuck pig. Not even worth a trip to the doc. My question is, will my ear get infected and rot off? If so, how will I wear my shooting glasses? |

A Macaw? Like one of these? http://s3.zoochat.com.s3.amazonaws.com/large/img_7114-150678.jpg Those are adorable and I would love to own one. My husband does not like parrots. This makes me a sad devil.

I just had a beautiful black lab wander into my yard. My son came running out yelling that there was a dog in the yard because we have had dogs chase and kill our chickens. Sweet as could be, and my daughter absolutely fell in love. We found the owner, but my wife finally saw the beauty of a dog and a child, even though he stunk to high heaven. It looks like it might be a stinky Christmas at my house this year.  |

Either get the dog well before the holiday, or wait until after the holiday craziness has calmed down. Bringing a dog into the holiday madness is a recipe for disaster. If you want the dog to be a present, wrap up a leash and collar with a note that says they'll get to see their new friend in a couple weeks. |

I tried to get my friends parrot to step on my finger so I could carry him around. Parrot wanted none of it and latched onto my finger.
My friend laughed his ass off while the parrot stayed on the perch, and I cowered to the ground and lost that game of "Mercy." Birds bite fucking hard. |
