Mitzi
 
I got my second pet when I was 3. She is a Tortoiseshell she is 60 in human years and she is called Mitzi. I named her Mitzi because I used to watch little bear and my favourite character was Mitzi the Monkey. Because I handled her a lot she is quite tame so if both of us are outside she will follow me around where ever i go. Mitzi loves humans but she isn't so keen with my dog Buddy they do bark and meow at each other but its natural.

Harry The Canary

When I was 2 I got my first pet canary I called him Harry because I thought she was a boy. After I had her a while she was ripping up paper at the bottom of her cage. Soon she laid 2 eggs and we realised she was a girl. But I didn't change her name because she was used to it.Canary's live for 5-8 years but I was lucky because she lived for 10 years. 

Here is a picture of Harry !!!!!

In the right corner of her empty water tub is 1 of her 2 eggs

  

 

Tp (Tweetie Pie)

My budgie is called Tp he is 4-5 months old and he was the last one out of the nest in my aviary. He didn't really like humans and he squawked a lot. I started to handle him when he was kicked out of the nest by his mum. Soon he was falling asleep on me and sitting on my shoulder. Tp sleeps in his cage and come out for most of the day so we have to make sure we keep the windows closed.
 
My mum started whistling at him every morning shortly after he started copying her. We wanted to get him to start talking and we realised that his mirror stopped him to talk as he thought it was another bird. As soon as I removed the mirror he started making sounds but we didn't know what he was saying. After a while he started saying "Wheres Sophie" and "Hello"over and over again. We are trying to teach him more words but it does take time.
 
Here are some pictures of Tp and his Mum and Dad
