For the many of you who don’t know, Catherine (my wife & partner) and I, spend almost 24/7 together. We always have something to say to one another, We talk about business a lot.

We brainstorm, plan, solve problems – you get it.

I’m not sure how this conversation got started, I remember we were in the car and I’m pretty sure Catherine said something like, “We spend so much time talking about how to care for our birds, the right bird food, proper size bird cage the right bird cage accessories and bird toys.

But we never talk about the other side.

The sadly ironic side of having a pet bird.

The single biggest reason our birds die is – we kill them.

Rather than expanding on each and every hazard, I’m going to list all that we came up with.

Let us know about your experiences so we can help other pet bird owners avoid potential catastrophes.
