Cleo & Henry Update

The last we'd left the drama of Cleo and Henry, they'd started sharing a cage, but Cleo was still grieving Millie. For several weeks, there was no agression between Cleo and Henry, but neither was there true affection. They were basically cohabiting.

Everything changed late last week.

Cleo and Henry started allopreening, sitting on the same perch, and attempting to be near each other as often as possible.

They aren't yet as close as Millie and Cleo were, but we're hoping that, with time, they'll get there.

It was heartbreaking watching Cleo grieve and not be able to do anything to cheer him up.

Cleo and Henry need to stay together; they will either be adopted out or will stay with us if we can't find the right home.

They're looking for a home that will just allow them to be birds. They have each other and prefer their own company to that of humans.
