Toying with an idea of owning a pet but don’t know which one?
You must be keen to get some specialist advice in selecting a life-long companion.
Have you considered cockatoos?
“Why should my pet be my lifelong companion?” you may wonder. Pet owners know how strongly they get attached to their new-found pets, within a short time. If their pet dies within a few years, they get into serious mental depression, for a long time. In fact, the lives of many people undergo a drastic change when they lose their dear pet. So, if you want to have a pet, you should think of it as a permanent part of your family.
One belief pet owners across the world share in common is: “When choosing a bird, pick a bird that selects you”. It is believed that this bird will be cheerful, inquisitive and will readily come to you.
And before you buy a Cockatoo, make sure you know what you are getting into. Unlike other pets, “cockatoos require a lot of time and attention”. They will also expect you to interact with them often.
This makes it all the more essential that your pet and you are compatible with each other!
Cockatiels
In the wild, Cockatoos eat whatever they find. For this reason, you should include a variety of things in their diet to stay as close to their natural diet as possible. On the other hand, your cockatoo can eat most of the things that you eat.
They mainly feed on seeds, berries, fruits, nuts and flowers. Sometimes, they can thrive on the basic diet of seeds and pellets alone. They don’t require any particular food but need “particular nutrients”. You should add more vegetables and fruits to your cockatoo’s diet. These are sources of additional nutrition.
