We have a perch in the kitchen for Casper so he can supervise. Our kitchen is tiny and only has 6ft 3" headroom. The perch is a swing hanging from a beam across the entrance to an alcove where the fridge and the microwave are kept so he really feels part of what is going on.
I think that if we had a Macaw it would block access to that part of the kitchen entirely
Rosie is a lot like Casper in the way she climbs around on you but she is on an industrial scale. Does she dip her tale in the sauces so she can have a snack later cleaning her feathers?
Get the kids to cook?
