Cockatoos

Cockatoos are beautiful and social birds, but adopting one is a long-term commitment. Popular pet cockatoos include the gentle Cockatiel, lively Sulphur-Crested Cockatoo, and affectionate Umbrella Cockatoo. Each species varies in personality and care needs. For instance, Cockatiels are smaller and easier to handle, while Umbrella Cockatoos are larger and require more space and interaction. Despite these differences, all cockatoos thrive on attention and need strong bonds with their owners.

Potential owners should be prepared for the high demands of cockatoos. These birds are intelligent, vocal, and can form deep emotional attachments, making them both rewarding and challenging to care for. They can be loud, with some species louder than others, and need mental stimulation to prevent boredom and behavioral issues.

Cockatoos require a spacious cage, fresh food, and toys for mental engagement. They’re prone to feather-plucking if stressed or left alone too long. With the right commitment, they can bring much joy, but it’s essential to understand their unique needs to ensure a healthy, happy life.
