[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have never allowed my son to have birds. I don't believe in them as pets. Birds were meant to fly and we are not equipped to offer them an appropriate environment. Also, birds can be quite difficult to care for properly.[/quote] +1 It is cruel to own a caged bird.[/quote] Do you have a cat? Keeping your cat indoors is unnatural and cruel, but that’s absolutely what you should be doing because cats are invasive species and kill millions of rodents and birds, who didn’t evolve to deal with housecats, every year. Keeping fish in an unclean fish tank is cruel. Keeping a dog and not giving it love and attention is cruel. Pet ownership is s mixed bag everywhere, and there’s plenty of cruelty to go around. A well-socialized bird with plenty of time outside the cage and maybe a bird friend is no worse than any of the scenarios above. [/quote]
