Update 08/11/2008: I'm doing a lot better! I have grown some of my feathers back and I'm sweeter than ever.
I'm a little Citron "Buttercup" and I've blossomed for Spring. I may look a
little rough and ragged around the edges, because I have picked my feathers,
but my personality more than makes up for it. I'm a real sweetheart says my
foster mom. I like everyone! I came from the same home as Gizmo the citron,
but we're very different. I'm a sweetie pie, and well, he's kind of a grump!
We're not bonded, nor do we share the same cage, so we can be adopted separately.
I am scheduled for a vet visit to see why I pluck my feathers. One of the
Mickaboo cockatoo coordinators feels perhaps it's due to lack of socialization -
since I'm a people friendly bird. I am five years old and spent my early years
interacting with folks - but not so much lately. I kind of miss that interaction.
Just to be sure that it's not just an emotional thing though I will see an avian
vet for a check up. Better safe than sorry right? I'll be available to be adopted
in just a short time. Won't you consider a friendly little girl to call your own?
I'd love a new friend.
