[quote=Anonymous]I've got the parakeet story... Want to adopt a parakeet. I grew up with one, managed a bird store, over the years have rescued an amazon, a conure, and an umbrella cockatoo. Have had a cockatiel for 20+ years; also another parakeet (who died after 10 years); both happy with their cage doors open all day. Have hatched a ducks and quail. I can't adopt because I have to attend their class, and they are far away (I'd have to spend the night if I was going to a class). Also, they won't adopt out just one parakeet; I have to take two. I ended up going to Petco but have done nothing yet. I do get what these places are trying to accomplish, but I think for the benefit of these poor animals, the rules should be the default and subject to case-by-case exceptions. Especially because if they are so strict, they run out of room, and then can't take other animals.[/quote]
