Gabby is a Moluccan cockatoo that has been with us for about 3 years. She came to us suffering from zinc toxicity and had several open wounds on her neck where she mutilated herself.
During the past years, she has made amazing progress and we are happy to report that she has not had any open wounds for several months!
Gabby loves to play with toys, but her most favorite thing to do is hang out with people.
If you are considering adding a cockatoo to your flock, we recommend that you visit mytoos.com. (If you click on this link, there are parrot screams in the background, so you may want to turn your volume off if you're at work!)
Cockatoos are beautiful and intelligent, but they can also be demanding, loud, and destructive. Almost every cockatoo that is surrendered to us has feather destructive issues of some kind. They require mental and physical stimulation that many homes are not equipped to provide.
