Pet parrots are not generally in the news so often, but this is my second post in one day because I found another news story about Pet Parrots that I think is of benefit to you, my readers.
In the Marin Independent Journal today, I found another news article about Pet Parrots. If you have been reading my blog you will realize that although I adore pet parrots I am also quite unrelenting in my advocacy of learning all you can about pet parrots before you go out and buy one. Too many people see the sign “Pet Parrots for Sale” and don’t do the due diligence to find out all that they can about Pet Parrot Care and what it entails.
According to the article in the news story, Pet parrots are the 4th most popular pet being outranked by cats, dogs and fish. Sadly it goes on to tell us that the pet rescue missions are finding more and more pet parrots that are given up by their owners or let loose in the open because pet parrot owners get fed up with them. What a sad state to be in. These poor pet parrots didn’t ask to come into our lives, how can people be so heartless as to let them loose to fend for themselves? Obviously the ones that are let loose, very seldom make it in such a drastic environment. Please read this story and read our blog posts so that you are educated about pet parrots and pet parrot care before you decide to buy one.

I never would have guessed that they were that popular. I guess you learn something new every day!
