budgie &mdash; madjo https://writeas.madjo.xyz/madjo/tag:budgie The ramblings from a 40ish bloke (he/him) from the south-west of the Netherlands. Mon, 04 May 2026 18:03:03 +0200 This past week I was asked to take care of my moms #budgie. https://writeas.madjo.xyz/madjo/this-past-week-i-was-asked-to-take-care-of-my-moms-budgie <![CDATA[This past week I was asked to take care of my moms #budgie. Him and I have had a rocky relationship. At first he didn't mind me so much, but at some point something in him switched and he began to attack me. Biting, flying at my face, that kind of stuff. To the point that he, sadly, had to be locked up in his cage when I came over to visit. So I wasn't exactly first choice to look after him in the evenings. But apparently, he's offering a kind of truce. I'm allowed to come near him, he even likes it when I give him some scritches alongside his beak. As long as I keep his food coming, I guess 😄 a little gray cockatiel looks at you defiantly within his cage Reply to this in the fediverse: @madjo@mstdn.social]]> This past week I was asked to take care of my moms #budgie.
