Re: My opinion...

Aye, right with you there, totally love the idea of cat runs, particularly here in Australia. I forgot that you were even in Australia (you ARE in Australia, right? This IS cosmos? Or have I gone and confused someone else and just wound up with two friends instead of one??).

I'd personally love something like a cat-run for my birdies, but with an eventually open top.. and a small area for them to hop in and out of the house as they please.

*reads the links*

Oh god, that's horrific. I had no idea. I'm just glad I wasn't FOR declawing before either.. I'm totally against man does 'owning' animals, but even moreso against any mutilation. It took all the guts I had to trim my birds feathers, and I was insanely careful about it and read up heaps - and thank the gods, I did it perfectly. Their wings grow back regularly and quickly and they're pooping from the top of the curtains again in no time *laughs*

They actually go up higher less because now they understand that it's one of the VERY FEW no-nos here. Well, they still go up to the curtain rails, they just don't crap on the curtain itself. Now if only I could get them to poop only on newspaper..
