Hi, I just saw that you reblogged a couple posts that were against parrots being kept as pets, and I'm kind of confused. You seem to be in support of people owning snakes, lizards, and spiders. How are those animals any less wild/undomesticated than parrots are? And I see budgies and conures for sale much more often than I see those other animals for sale. I have a lovebird that I've owned for six months so far and I want to know how and why this is bad and what I should do about it.

Honestly most of the controversy around keeping parrots as pets is referring to talking ones: the ones that are highly intelligent, highly social, form life-long social bonds and have such a long life-span that they tend to outlive their owners (macaws, african greys, etc) - I don’t consider lovebirds to be on the same level.

It’s cruel to keep them as pets unless you basically rearrange your whole life around keeping them company and giving them enough enrichment (and try not to get one that you know is likely to outlive you). It’s not that it’s impossible to do so without cruelty, it’s just that the minimum requirements they need for that are far more than the vast majority of people who get them can give.

Snakes, lizards, and spiders all require much less enrichment and social interaction, and whilst they are exotic and a lot of the people who get them don’t know how to care for them, they could if they had the knowledge because those exotics are much much lower maintenance. It’s not about how wild/undomesticated they are, it’s about how capable people are of caring for them.

Like, I’m not against parrots existing as pets; I’m just against them being a ‘trendy/popular’ pet that people are getting just because they think it would be cool and then are not able to provide for properly. I’m against them being sold to incompetent people just for profit.

And the vast, vast majority of talking parrot owners I see or hear about are incompetent af and it upsets me.

I saw a picture of your fursona on my dash and thought it was really cute, and then I saw that we have the same name. Our fursonas have the same name. I feel kinda weird about this.

Same name!

Clearly there is only one solution to this predicament.

Let’s hug it out.
