Moral of the story: KEEP YOUR BIRD OUT OF THE KITCHEN 😂

Leaving a door or window open to a bird is like taking your child to the park, looking away for 1 second and then they're gone edit OMG THANK YOU ALL FOR 674 LIKES IVE NEVER GOTTEN THT MUCH IN MY LIFE!

Elle: 'No nonstick pans. The fumes released when heated may kill your bird'
*cries in asian kid*

DO NOT PUT YOUR OVEN IN SELF CLEAN WITH YOUR BIRD IN THE HOUSE!!!  Just learned this the hard way!! My conure died because if this, I don’t want this to happen to anyone else.

“You are going to have to yEET some of these things out of your house” 😂😂😂

When she said plants in the house i was like “ oh no...”

This applies to my cockatiel
She protecc
She attacc
But most importantly she want snacc

me as an artist who paints in my room 👁👄👁

Elle; the second way that paint can harm birds is if your bird chews on something that is painted and it starts flaking off.
My bird in the meantime: chews on the metal of his cage like he has 9 lives or something

I had a 15 year old Cockatiel that was my absolute BABY.  In our okd house, when we put the oven to auto clean, (fumes are fatal to birds) we put her and her Budgie friend in a room far away with fans and shut the door.  They were always fine!  However, last year, we moved into a new house.  It was time to auto clean the oven, so we moved the cockatiel, budgie, and our 3 canaries to the farthest room in the house, again, with fans, door shut and towel under the wedge.  This is the sad part.  Unfortunately, somehow, abd maybe it was the type of oven, but the birds were poisoned by the fumes.  The budgie died first, to which we took immediate action and removed the rest of them from the house completely to get fresg air.  Unfortunately then, two of the canaries passed, shortly followed by my dear Cockatiel.  One canary survived because she struggles to intake air, thus not receiving a fatal amount of fumes (the breeder we received her from failed to care for her properly, we saved her).  This was last week.  So please, please, if you're auto cleaning an oven, if you can, remove the birds from the house completely, if you can.  Keep the at a family member's for the day.  Do not repeat my mistake.  I miss my girl.

The open door/window one is probably the scariest one, your little birdie could suddenly go missing and while you're spending your time looking for him indoors, they'll be running around outside. Every second counts when your bird is outside :(


My mum left the back door wide open the other day, and my bird Oscar flew outside. I never thought he'd be able to fly all the way through the living room, through the dining room, through the conservatory, and onto the driveway in one quick flight, but he did, even with his wings partially clipped. He made his way down the driveway and into the front garden before we finally managed to catch him. It was a really close call, but she still hasn't learned her lesson because she keeps leaving the door open when she goes outside ;_;

Me:sees non stick frying pan *throws frying pan out the window mom:WHAT ARE DOING me:ITS FOR THE BIRBS

Elle: " no scented things"
My moms candles:" WHAT NO NO NO I DONT WANNA LEAVE"

I love how her bird just fly and land on her so cute😍

“No open windows”

Me: *Looks at my dog cause she chewed up my charger and earphones*

I'm gonna adopt a cockatiel tomorrow, and we plan to put the cage a little near the kitchen
Edit: I'm so glad I found this video, or else my cockatiel would die..I will ask my dad to move the cage outside or inside my room..
