DID YOU KNOW? 🤔
The saliva of mammals such as cats, dogs and even humans is dangerous to our feathered companions?🤤⚠️
Our saliva, as well as the saliva of other mammals, contains what is known as ‘gram-negative bacteria’.
Gram-negative bacteria are a specific type of bacteria that can cause infections throughout the body.
E.coli is an example of a ‘gram-negative bacteria’. This type of bacteria can be present in our bodies and in normal amounts is harmless. Our bodies are well equipped to fight and protect against the infections caused by these bacteria.
Parrots on the other hand DO NOT have any gram-negative bacteria present in their systems and cannot fight these infections. 🤒
Care must be taken to avoid spreading potentially harmful bacteria to your parrot, whether it's not allowing them to share your utensils or not trying to re-enact that scene from Lady and the Tramp.
We also advise that other pets are never left unsupervised with a parrot because of the many risks involved including the spread of gram-negative bacteria on their bodies and in their saliva.
Leave it to the parrots! 🦜😍

Parrot bites can be sore - big time! 😫
Don't forget - when birds bite it's for a reason - it's not their fault if we don't understand them but it's our job to try.
Here's a handy wee guide that may go some way to help.

PARROT FACT!
Depending on where you pet your parrot, you could be sending them the wrong message. This can result in confusion for your bird and be the basis for aggressive and self-mutilating behaviour.

A good opportunity to help a local rabbit charity and snag yourself a nice carrier.

See their message below.

Fudge is 6 year old, he's a house rabbit and been neutered. He's lionhead and very cute.

Not available Saturday.

Between 10am and 12 noon Sunday.

Morning all.
Just a quick reminder of the drop off / pick up times....
Monday to Friday
5.30pm till 7.30pm.
Closed Saturday.
10am till 12 noon Sunday.
As always I will arrange a more specific time closer to the date of board as I may have multiple owners to accommodate.

If owners could please take these times into account when booking to avoid being unable drop off or collect.
Many thanks

We all know rabbits must live in pairs or groups to be happy - but these should always be neutered!

REMEMBER...
🛡Even if your female rabbit is spayed, an uncastrated male will still try to mount her, which can trigger fighting and will cause stress to both rabbits.
🛡If you only neuter your male rabbit and leave your female unspayed, she could experience repeated ‘false pregnancies’ and likely become aggressive and be at risk of uterine cancer.

If you have any books in the house that are gathering dust we will be more than happy to take them in to give them a new home. All genres welcome 🙂
