Benjamin being a birb

Hello there! Birds typically don't prefer to be grabbed or held in this way; they are different from cats and dogs from example, and the best way to cuddle them is to offer a head scratch when the bird asks for one. Benjamin and I have built a relationship together where he trusts me to briefly and gently hold him like this. I am not squeezing tightly and am always respectful of his limits, so he knows that he can get away whenever and as soon as he wants. It is an honor that he trusts me enough to do so. Also, I rarely do this at all - in this case, I was demonstrating how Benjamin doesn't care as much when he's in his sort of "singing trance". Thank you for reading.

PSA on Birds:

Bringing a parrot into your family is a lifetime commitment, similar to having a human child. Far too many parrots are abused, given away, or abandoned not long after they are purchased, by people who haven't done their research and aren't prepared for all the work it really takes to live with a bird.

Please don't get a bird just because you've seen other birds who look cute - but every bird has his/her own individual personality, just like humans do. Living with and caring for a parrot takes a TON of work. Please do your research and if possible, volunteer at a parrot rescue or sanctuary so you can get to know actual parrots first hand before considering adopting one.

Please do not buy. Do not support the pet industry which breeds and sells animals for profit and which keeps this cycle of cruelty going toward these intelligent, beautiful beings.
