The Bird-Man relationship


Kiki has lived with me for almost a year now and I often wonder what compelled me to purchase him. On that cold December morning when I was shopping at Bayshore Mall and decided to look at the animals in the Pet Shop, I had absolutely no intention of getting a pet. Let alone a bird! However, the first time I saw Kiki, I fell in love. He knew that I was going to be his owner as well. His head was stuck out between the bars of his cage, almost saying, "Here I am!"
Well, that was it. The sales lady came over and the transaction was completed. The next day, Kiki was now my room mate. He is a Red-Fronted New Zealand Parakeet, also known as a Kakariki. I never planned on getting a pet bird, but I am glad I did. Everyday is different and a new discovery with him and his new mate Reina.
