Early this year, I was given a gift from my grandparents....a parakeet who I named Cody. He's become a great friend, although I only get to see him when I go visit my grandparents. You see, I have three cats living with me at home, and I didn't want poor Cody ending up as my furry friends' lunch!
I have found that parakeets have an unusual appetite. Cody's favorite food, beside seeds, of course, is celery. He just loves it and just finds it hard to resist! If it were up to me, I'd rather have pizza!
One of Cody's favorite things to do is get out of his cage and spread his wings. He loves to fly around the house and sometimes lands and slides on the windowsill. So far, we've been lucky not to have any birdy-doo-doo droppings land on grandma's floors! I don't think she's appreciate that very much, but so far, we've been lucky!
