Cockatiels rule!We inherited a cockatiel off my Great Grandad who used to whack his walking stick against the cage when it made noise. When I came to hoover one day, I plugged it in, the hoover that is, and the bird had a heart attack. We gave it artificial respiration, but sadly to no avail.
We then got love birds but they ate the covering to all the electrical wires so worried there might be a fire risk, we swopped them for a baby cockatiel, which we fondly named named stupid at it keeps flying into the window if the curtains are left open.
Also my i won an ex a goldfish, which I christened metz and poured a bottle of Metz (duh) into the tank. After 3 months it had grown huge fan like fins and lived for about 2 years!
And my first pets where Albino gerbils, which died when we left them out in the sunshine one day and their water turned green.
