Pet Peeves

MMy pet birds love music, and I can tell when they are totally entranced by it. The Cockatiel loves Maria Callas in particular.
The Cockatiel has to stay away fron the record jackets. If he get at them, he can damage five or six in a few seconds, chewing the edges up.
He listens pretty good, and responds properly to the command "NO". but within thirty seconds he can be right back at them, IF I am not watching. (smart little bird)
The parakeet is intimidated by the Cockatiel, and stays in his cage (though the door is open) The parakeet sings along with some music (nice)

What about pets that add their own sounds while you're trying to listen?

Good Example

Elizabeth: ha! yes those birdies can shred some stuff in no time flat. My Blue-Crown conure and my Senegal have destroyed lots of books esp. paperbacks.. (cage was close to bookshelves) Luckily they are no where near any of the listening rooms.

My cat is always nice and clam.

Viridian, did you like the hungry fat cat video? I laughed out loud when my son sent me that link.
