Do you have a cat at home and are you thinking about getting another pet?

If you want to get a parrot, you should think several times about whether it is worth doing so.

Let us remember that no matter how quiet and docile a domestic cat may be, this animal is first and foremost a predator.

Consequently, the appearance of a bird in the house can awaken the hunting instinct in her, and the bird will become the object of pursuit.

However, if the desire to get a parrot to pair with a cat is irresistible, use the following tips:

  • Do not leave two animals alone unattended.
  • Pay special attention to the first meeting of pets, nipping aggression in the bud.
  • Keep the bird and the predator in separate rooms.

Be prepared to treat your pet's wounds, as many birds have beaks for protection, and cats' claws contain special bacteria that are dangerous to birds.

If you follow the rules above, you can easily make your dream of having a parrot and a cat in the same apartment come true.
