My basic info
Here's what the humans have to say about me:
"CASPER"
Umbrella Cockatoo
Fostered by Jeff M of Orlando, FL
Casper is a beautiful Umbrella Cockatoo with a lot of life and personality! We are not exactly sure of his age, but he recently had surgery and is now feeling fine and dandy! Casper is a loving bird and is very affectionate, and will get under your chin to give you a hug. He seems to like music and I have seen him dance. (I refer to him as Casper, the friendly TOO!) He will say his name, hello and mutter several other things that I can't quite make out. He is not a screamer, but does vocalize a little here and there. Casper does require a lot of attention and will go to anyone in the house, but you need to be careful not to over stimulate/excite him, or he could prolapse again.. He also seems to like to be outside and ride in the car. He likes grapes, apples, strawberries, etc... He seems to enjoy a good shower using the mist setting on the shower head. Umbrella cockatoos can live up to and possibly beyond 80 years of age and do require a lot of attention for their entire life span, so please keep this in mind when deciding to adopt. These birds are VERY social and need a lot of interaction, but their loving personalities and the devotion they show is second to none. If you are a dedicated owner who is willing to provide significant and meaningful attention to this intelligent parrot for the rest of your life, then Casper is for you!
Adoption fee $400 with cage $650
