Meet Snowball

Meet Snowball, an approximately 23 year old medium sulfur crested cockatoo. We adopted him out 7 years ago, to what appeared to be a great situation. And it was for the first four years. He was out almost constantly and received a lot of attention.We were told several different stories about what happened next, but apparently he was not let out of his cage at all for the next three years. His family finally decided to return him, and now we're hoping to find him the right forever home.

He is tame and friendly, though does tend to prefer women. Cockatoos can be very challenging to keep in captivity, and we recommend that anyone considering bringing a cockatoo into their house first spend some time at mytoos.
