Today we received a great note from a customer complementing our products and service. But the true hero is Kelly who just rescued a Mealy Amazon from poor care. People who open their hearts and homes to birds in need are amazing. Here is Kelly's note.
Is it possible to improve on the natural wooden perch? We think so. We have added patented pumice technology to Manzanita perches to offer all the benefits of wood and cement perches. Now birds can have extra safety and nail health benefits of a textured grip in a natural wood perch.
Had a lot of fun with this. Destroyed it in 3 days!
This was a fun toy. Mini macaw took two days to attack it and had a ball reducing it to toothpicks in about 3 days. Ribbons were an attractive thing to play with and he dragged it all over the house, finding and replacing its contents as he goes.
At first my bird was fine with this, he saw it as just another perch. After sitting on it a while to play with the toy I bought him, he has now become afraid to use it. This is highly unusual for him, especially as it had taken the place of his "treat perch" where he goes to receive a treat for getting in his cage. This bird will do anything for a nut, so if he's avoiding this perch after initially using it, it's a clear sign it's hurting him.
