Hi everyone, my name is Keith. My family is the proud new owner of a CAG. Our last bird was a Grey about 15 years ago and we now stumbled upon the opportunity to adopt Louie. A friend of ours called us asking if we would be interested. One of their elderly family members is having to go to a nursing home which unfortunately meant he needed to find a home for Louie Louie is really great, within minutes he allowed us to hold him and interact with him. This morning I opened his door and he came directly to me and stuck his little foot out wanting me to hold him, and then didn't want to be put down. He is the cutest thing ever, he whistles somgs, makes this whistle like something is going down over a cliff and then ends it with a splash sound, if you do the whistle he makes the splash sound at the end for you. Then after you start laughing at him, he laughs along. Last night I popped open a soda can, he made the noise just as I was opening it and then made a sound that sounded as off the aluminum tab popped off, I actually thought for a second it was the can. anyway,I could go on forever about him. I am really surprised how quick he seems to be adjusting. Almost bitter sweet because I know it means his previous owner loved him so much that he is able to be so trusting. Can't believe we have this amazing opportunity to share our home with Louie and to have him as a part of our family.
