I love that your husband's heart melted when your parrot said "Papa" the first time.
That was sweet.
It was probably the first moment where the humans confirmed that Vandal finally found the right place in the universe.
Her husband was wearing his Seahawks t-shirt but it did look a lot like vandal.
Oh, the softly whispered " hi, baby" melted my heart! So sweet. He's gorgeous.
You are very Lucky to have that Magical Bird !
He looks so much healthier since you adopted him. What a beautiful bird. Thanks for rescuing him.
That is just a downright happy, content birb. When they lay on their backs, wholeheartedly in such a vulnerable position; that's the most profound trust they can give you. My little green turkey of 15 years does that fun nonsense with us and we just love her.
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ Um.... NO.

He stopped feather picking, a sure sign of healing. May you all live long and prosper.
Her name is Nadia, and the meaning of her name in Russian is Hope.
This is cute because it may be said that she gave her parrot the hope for a better happy life
To this day nothing made me laugh more as a child than going to my friends house and hearing his parrot re-enact an argument his parents had the night before. Complete with 100% accuracy in regards to an impression of the person speaking and all the swear words used.
Amazing creatures that can embarrass you in a heartbeat 😂
They are the definition of "little pitchers have big ears." And mouths.
That's hilarious. 😆
Little kid's mind: "Haha that's really funny!"
Reality: There's a Divorce coming.
Oh well if you hadn't slept with the postman, I wouldn't have bought an RX-8!
Amazing! Bahahahaha
I love that she is literally letting her kids know he’s part of the family, for as long as there are members of the family!! Awesome that they’re being raised with him!
I think it’s one of the reasons parrots shouldn’t be pets….at least not as common as they are. Shelters are filled to the brink w birds who’ve lost their owners & it’s not realistic to expect your family to take up a 20,30,40 year commitment Bc you wanted a parrot
Watch the fingers!!!!
yes, these long-lived intelligent birds need to be with their flock for their life

Dear God, this reminds me of my 25 year old pal, Tula, a Scarlet Macaw. He was my pal, after only a few weeks, he climbed out of the large cage and spent time walking on my arm in Albany, Oregon. He was my pal. He drank from water fountains or with orange juice, walked through the local park, and he learned to talk...once he said, "Tula, come home" to himself after he walked into the house off the tree, cackling and laughing the whole time. He was only flying once, but still had full flight feathers. I sure miss him,my beautiful pal.
Hello there, how're you doing!!!
am good how are you @@BjornMaxson-ju5rv
He is absolutely precious & I don't think that he could have found a more loving forever home
How true…you are absolutely wonderful people xxx💛💙💚🤍
I love people that save animals ❤️ 💕 ♥️ 💓
🙏🏻😇🤍✨️
Me, too, KrissyGirl!
😍💞
I love animals that save people❤

3:02 Sometimes it's astonishing isn't it? When my grandpa died and I was just so lost and crying, I took a walk and came by some horses. One just locked her eyes on me, ran to the fence and pressed her head into my belly. She let me pet her and cry and that felt so comforting...thank you sweet horse ❤
Day my dad died I was sitting outside his place crying my eyes out and along comes their charming little cat who cuddles up to me till I could stand and go help my mom. That cat now visits my house a few streets away from where she saw me cry. Think she is checking on me. Animals just know what we need. So I thank your horse pal and hope you are doing well.
Pressed her head into your belly? You must be REALLY tall!
Yes it’s so amazing and mysterious that they know EVEN MORE THAN WR KNOW ABOUT OURSELVES. Sometimes, I have found that the most “ discerning” and caring animals, do not live as long. It must take a lot out of them. ❤
wow
Animals know. They just know.
You've done yourself a service. As a multiple pet rescuer, I've learned that we are generally the rescued, vs the other way around. 6 trips to the sanctuary = a lifetime of dividends. Peace
Him whispering "Hi, baby" melted me. 😭
Such a sweet and heartwarming story. Looks like he picked not only mommy but daddy, too, lol. Wishing you a wonderful life with Vandal.❤️
Cringe af 🤓
@@Lamiishere Just like you 🤓
This made me tear up, especially when she said “thank you Vandal, for saving me”.
Thank you for sharing this with us ❤️
Yeah I ended up being teary-eyed through the video. It is a lovely story :)
Me too.
❤️There Are So Many Kinds Of Love❤️
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ *I'm not quite sure that you understand the context of that verse in relation to this video??
I did too.
A human/bird marriage made in heaven. You brought this beauty back from ruin with unlimited, unconditional, love. The two of you bring out the best in each other.
My god - obviously, his previous home was toxic. He seems so happy now! Thank you for giving him a loving home
"They choose you", this is 100% true. I used to have a parrot, I was his owner for years, untill a neighbor's granddaughter wanted to pet him. My parrot just fell in love, climbed on her shoulder and got upset when she left. I was sad to let it go after so many years, but I knew they were soulmates.
REALLY????? YOU LET IT GO????
I COULD NOT DO THAT...!!!!
I WOULD MOVE BEFORE I GIVE MY PET TO SOMEBODY ELSE..!!!
I GUESS YOU ARE NOT A SELFISH PERSON LIKE ME...!
@@lizyave8961 If you love something, set it free.
That is so big of you! My friends let one of their fave dog go to me... They said the same thing.
It was totally right, generous, considerate and unselfish of you to respect that parrot's choice. They are, after all, sentient beings and do feel love.
@@lizyave8961 the thing here is to understand that your concept of “pets” is kinda wrong. They are companions, emotions of their own and as any living being even if treated kindly and lived somewhere, you eventually connect with someone and that becomes “your” person.
There's nothing stronger than the bond between good people and animals.
Birds take bonding to another level. :)
I always laugh a lot when I hear a human being (Homo sapiens, a primate, of the order of mammals) say: "animals know, do, say, etc etc" as if the human being were not an animal ! LOL It's really insane not even knowing what one is. WE ARE ALL ANIMALS! All sentient being are individuals and are intelligents and cutes. The word animals don't mean nothing, because you are an animals.
This demented human-animal distinction is at the root of everything wrong and evil on planet Earth. At most we can speak of the various different species, but in substance they are all the same.
This brought a tear to my eye! What a wonderful story. Thank you so much for rescuing him! xoxo
Hello Irina, how're you doing today??
Your video made me cry 😭, it is such a beautiful relationship. Recently a red-lored amazon came to my life because nobody else wanted to adopted him, I didn’t know if I would be able to make a good job, but when you said “you do not pick them, they lick you” my heart felt humbled because Iago (my amazon) loves me and I know he is happy with me and I am happy with him. Thank you.
First, thank you for the rescue! He needed you and you needed him. I’m so very sorry for your loss. In time it will heal. Animals are so sentient, they know more than we give them credit for.
Vandal is a pretty chicken! I love the shot of your husband sitting in his lawn chair grinning - priceless! Vandal loves you and I love that he protects you. The - no shoes in the house is a good one! I’ll have to train my cat! Thank you for sharing Vandal with us! A match made in heaven! Love love ❤️
A lovely and very true comment!
Hmm 🤔 I didn’t know Parrots were chickens 🐓
Such a sweet reply! 💛💙💚❤💛💙💚
@@Madenthewest the lady that rescued him called him "a pretty chicken" in the video.
So tender. Love that you & family love him & he loves you.🙏💖🙏
It's always the "crazy" ones that end up being the most affectionate and full of personality. Vandal looks like such a sweetheart that was fortunate enough to be given a better life. His old owner was most likely abusive. Poor thing.
My cat was the last of the litter. No one wanted him. So i took him home and he is the most affectionate cat ever ❤
@@bhoogvliet Aww! How kind of you. :)
Yes, you can guarantee this bird was abused and neglected. Even the owner of the rescue had no empathy for him, which is not cool at all.
It's amazing how people are so quick to judge these perfect beautiful animals, not realizing the love that they are willing to give you and how much they have to give I am so glad and grateful for you God bless you and your beautiful family and Vandal of course❤
And clearly a piece of s***!
That had me in tears it's nice to see some body so kind doing something positive in this world, it's a rare thing. I can see they are both very loving and caring people.
What a beautiful bird. I'm glad you were able to rescue him. Our parrots are like our children as well. I couldn't imagine not having them around.
"dOn'T TaKe hIm hE's CrAzY"
*Vandal being an absolute cutey*
Sometimes it's great to have some crazy in your life^^
I love this, I also had a rescue parrot who’d been abused. He was a Timneh African Grey and a bit wild. I was a child when he came to us and he was so in tune with me. Sadly, after having him for 20 years, I found him dead whilst I was pregnant. I was devastated and wish my daughter could’ve met him. She loves watching videos of him, and I recently had him tattooed on my leg so that in some way, he’s still with me.
😓😓😓. Beautiful story... 🌹🌷
@@philhudson...5017 Thank you, lately I’ve been dreaming about him every night, it was over 9 years ago I lost him and I think I’m finally ready for another. I’m so glad I have videos, I just wish I had more. 💔
@@louisegalluzzo1749 I couldn't imagine your loss at that time, he was in tune with you because you guys were inlined in sync, Animals are less stressful than humans.🤔🤣... Stay safe and enjoy your journey..🙏🇳🇿...
These close spirits never leave us! 🦜
Awww, so sweet
I feel the same way about my cat, Reggie. It's such an incredible bond when the animal chooses you.
Relationships with animals are always special… I‘m happy the parrot finally found a new family who treat him good and love him
That is so sweet. It always saddens me to learn people abandoning their pets. The fact that you already have committed to this bird for years to come is very comforting. Thanks.
Perhaps, they may have lost their place and couldn't keep him
@@kathleenking47 I was talking in general terms.
Vandal did not have a good owner previously...on the other hand ..he ended up with the best one he can possibly have...so even his first 7 yrs were totally miserable he has another 70 or more of good ones coming 😍
i know right? my mother is getting up there in years and we have started to discuzz me moving back in with her to help take care of her, im 50, so its a life changing thing for us both. she mentioned id have to get rid of my cats and i told her she will have to hire a nurse then, because, i love my mom and will be there for her absolutely, but im not getting rid of my 2 cats who have never known anything but me. she will have to get used to them or i dont come.
Sometimes people that have pets die and they end up at shelters. Just because the bird cusses doesn't mean the owner was a bad person. They just had a potty mouth. The owner might have died of Covid. I could care less how he ended up at the shelter. At least he has a home and he's loved and that to me is all that matters.
I'm glad that you were brought into each others lives at just the right time. You could see that he was stressed with all the bald spots he had. Thank you for being awesome and giving him a good loving forever home. Peace and love to you and your family 💚💙💜
They are a sweet match.
Wonderful, wonderful that you found him and he found you!❤️
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
I am so glad Vandal found a loving home.
This is very heartwarming. It's funny how she called him a chicken. (I have a Polish crossbeak chicken who is an indoor bird. She flies, will come when we call her like a little puppy, and she loves riding around the house on her humans- she acts like she can steer us. She's my "wonky parrot".)
Maybe you should be on geobeats!
That’s wonderful 😊
I call my parrot a chicken all the time too! I didn’t know that’s a common thing amongst parrot owners lol. Cracks me up. :)
One of my earliest memories as a kid is the Parrot my Grandpa had, Elmer. Elmer lived to be almost 70 years old, and was a VERY smart and talkative bird.
Wow! 70!! ♥️♥️
What species was he?
@@lilgoobgoobrgob He’s an Macaw 🦜 from South America, I forget which one the colors…
Sounds like a super like able bird!
Animals absolutely feel your pain. And you can’t fake how you feel. I too lost my dad in August of 2008 and then my mom in February 2009. I was so lost and heart broken. I have a mustache parakeet and a Timneh African Grey. I’ve had them both since they were 4 months old . The mustache turned 29 in October, the grey will be 29 in April. They know me because they feel my heart. My grey started to pluck his feathers because I was emotionally distant. I teased and laughed and played with them but my Gabby knew the truth. I’ve managed to overcome my losses and I move forward every day. And it’s hard because I just lost a sister in April. I’ve controlled my feelings better so Gabby isn’t feeling bad for me.. Birds are amazing.. I think you have a special one.
Stay strong. Stay brave. For yourself and your lovely affectionate birds. Your parents and sister are watching over you. They are in your heart , with you always. You and your lovely birds take care
So wholesome 😊
What an adorable bird. He knew you needed him
I’m so happy he finally has you and Shame on those rescue people for saying “he’s crazy, you don’t want him”. That’s just awful. So glad you took a chance with him 💜 He’s so happy now
I kinda feel that, but on the other hand I respect them for being honest & trying to rehome birds that have a good chance of a good life, rather than sending out ones that will likely come back to them over & over again, each time in a worse state than the last time, due to the rejection. By being honest with her, it also tests if she's really going to commit to a bird that most would find too much for them
@@mehere8038 that’s very true. Yeah, I see that point. Just like with dogs or cats. It just made me sad.
@@LizzyDidntDoIt yeh, I see it more like a child with a bird, cause they're so intelligent, so like saying that a foster child is "crazy & you don't want him" It's horrible! but there are foster mums out there that are going to say "oh yes I DO want him! You watch me show you he's NOT crazy". So if it's done right & for the right reasons, it can be a good thing, but it can also be a bad thing, especially if done in front of the child/bird & the attitude carers use with the child/bird constantly tells them they're seen as crazy & unwanted by those caring for them. Doing that is the fastest way to make the child/bird act up & in the way they've been labelled.
I do hope they're just trying to match well & trying to do the most good for the most number of birds they can & it certainly is possible that's the case. I like to try to be positive & give people the benefit of the doubt, especially people engaged in activities like volunteering to rescue troubled birds, cause it's likely they're good people at heart, with good intentions
I thought the same thing😡😡
I don't have any experience with birds, only fostering dogs (and some cats), but I lived in a one-br apartment with two or three of my own, also worked full-time and volunteered in rescue then.
While I'd never say to an interested adopter "this dog's crazy, you don't want him/her", I think it's great that this woman kept visiting Vandal and developing a connection with him until she was sure. In my case, I'd usually say: "If I can do it, you can, too; but you've got to be willing to do whatever it takes." Interestingly, a few of the more challenging dogs got placed with adopters who then got involved in rescue as well (and were better at it than I was!) Meanwhile, my "foster fails" (who became my own) were the easiest, go figure. If you pose it as a challenge to someone, often they and you will know who's ready to rise to it.
I imagine that given how long these birds live, the attention they require, how they bond or how stressed they get with change, a rescue might rather they stay in sanctuary than to be returned for whatever reason.
You saved him. He saved you. Synchronicity at its best. So very happy for you both.
So interesting how parrot's pupils "zoom-in" when they speak / repeat words back.
Almost as if they are remembering it visually, or having a physiological response to the memory - as if to relive it.
We have so much more of a connection with animals than I think we realize.
Anyway, amazing story here. Trying to find some happiness in this world
Mine does it just before she bites me too haha There's certainly different types of eye pinning, thankfully I learnt them all :D
Clever monsters
@@vaiman7777do a lot of parrots bite?
@@BabyBoy_Milo Yes, they are very cautious animals, as they are prey in the wild. Mine pecks really, still hurts 😂
They do it less the more confidence they get with you. But yes, they bite
Nope. Many in the parrot family do it. I always iterpretet it as a sign of happyness. They do it when courtimt their partner. Do it when they are eating a treat they really enjoy. Excited in a good way.
Okay this one has me balling like a baby 🥺. When she thanks him for saving her and all of the sweet amazing things she said about how much he means to her is EXACTLY what I needed to see & hear today. I wish all humans could love other humans and animals this way. Our world needs this kind of love so badly. Thank you so much for this most amazing and beautiful story 🤍🕊️🤍
True true
*bawling :-)
Exactly 💯 how I feel!
It really does warm the heart 😀 ❤
Yes, she's so very good for Vandal, and Vandal is so very good for her. As if they were meant to be togeether. I love watching the two of them together, priceless 😀 💕 She's so happy, and proud to be with Vandal....just warms my soul
no surprise that Vandal won papa's heart! those little endearing calls for papa melts everyone's heart immediately. I am very happy for you, Vandal, for your family loves you so very much 🥰
Parrots are awesome. The worst part about having an animal friend is losing them. With parrots you don't have to worry about that, the great thing is they can become lifelong family with multiple generations.
This is such a beautiful and touching story. Animals are the best for us, Humans should respect them. 🙏🏻❤️ Take care, he's precious
They better get used to hearing that parrot use those bad words. My girlfriends cousin adopted a parrot almost 10 years ago and it still tells people to fu*k off 🤣
Freedom of speech!!!
Wise parrot
You know somebody truly loves and cares for a pet when they insure safety and security for that pet after they're gone. 💚
Amazing bird, you are so lucky to have him.
You are so fortunate to have found each other!
Hilarious footage of Vandal looking at himself in the coffee table. All pets have to choose their owners, it's the only way that they can bond with you. I wanted a cat from the shelter in 2007, my husband wasn't keen. However he came to look with me and a tiny kitten who was sleeping woke, detached herself from other kittens, jumped/fell from a chair and clambered up my husband's leg. That was the one we had to have. In 2015 he was sick and had to spend 6 nights in hospital. Every night she would do a careful tour of the house looking for him before subsiding on his side of the bed. On the 7th day when he finally came home she couldn't believe it was him. She ran to him at the door mewing loudly, he crouched down and she stood up with her paws on his knee purring and telling him not to go away again and leave her. It was so touching. He is her person. In 2022, 16 years later she's still with us, ruling the roost.
GOD BLESS these people for adopting these beautiful animals!!
You must be very special to get this parrot to love you. Your mum would be very proud of you.
That is a beautiful parrot 🦜. I’m glad that he was rescued. He’s very fortunate.
I finished watching this video with tears rolling down my face. A beautiful story with a beautiful bird and a beautiful woman. I am so glad that you found each other and you are both getting back to a better life. Losing your mother is hard. I lost mine recently. Love to you your family and Vandal from me in Scotland.
Yeah me too, I had to grab some tissues. Lovely video, parrot, and this woman has pure heart
Me too. I’m still wiping them from my eyes. 😢💙
Same here! What a beautiful soul - inside and out! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
I wanted to hear him swear
russian woman btw
The sound of Vandal's " hello " is so beautiful & touching. Likewise his calling of " Papa " can melt anyone's heart !!
Love you Vandal , God bless you & your family.
I have been LOOKING for years for a bird!!!! Please help me to, To find a forever friend!!! Thank you for reading!!!
Ohhh how awesome! The parrot wanted a family!!! He screamed because he wanted a home! What a wonderful story! He loves you guys!
Great job selecting the one that no one desires. Pets do select their owners and Vandal selected you. Macaws mature around 6 to 7 years and select their mate, which probably why he choose you and your husband. Keep making him part of the family. My macaw was a green-winged and bonded with my wife, but he became dangerous when we had a baby as he was too jealous. We found an older lady who lived alone and needed a companion and Rocky bonded with her quickly - a great match.
What happens when she dies though? She's obviously going to die well before he will!
So glad you could find him a loving home
That whisper..."Hi baby" oh my heart🥺🥺🥺😩❤️
Thank you for giving Vandal a chance ❤
I LOVE WHAT YOU'VE DONE.
Parrots are very very very special animals with big hearts. They need protection, help, understanding, loyalty, dedication for years...and love more than anything!!!
🤧 aww he's gorgeous, bless you for saving him. So sorry you lost your mum, may she rest in peace, 🙏 great video thanks 🖤
I'm glad to see that Vandal got a great family, birds live a lot longer then people think they do, and I worry about them because I know they are left alone after their owners die or can't take care of them anymore...We had a bird and my husband couldn't bring himself to cut his feathers, and when the bird got away, my husband sat on the porch and cried...
I trained my birds after one of them got out, thankfully we found her. But I couldn't stand the idea of them getting lost, so I trained my lovebirds to free fly. First step is getting them to come to their name, and not spook to loud noises.
So sorry. 💖💖💖
We had a green cheek and he flew out the window and my kids and husband were crying thank goodness we got him back. Unfortunately we lost him when we let a sitter take care of him. We had MANY more years with her. She was gonna buy us a new bird but my husband said no cuz no bird could replace our “Louie” to this day we want to get another bird but now we have 2 cats and my husband is afraid that the bird would get hurt.
Great! Animals can do so much for us and help with our sadness. Great video, you guys look so happy with the bird, great video!
Thank you for taking this animal into your life.
This (adoption) is pretty much the only way someone should end up owning a bird like this. They really just belong in the wild. Having said this, I'm a total bird lover, and would be the type of person to end up in this situation. Unfortunately, I know how long they live, and I have no children, so would never put a bird through this type of thing, unless it was a parakeet, or other bird that doesn't have such a long lifespan. I loved the video, and you are giving your sweet fourth baby the life it truly deserves. All the best.
Their mom has to die first? 😳
I don't have children either and feel the same way you do - I would love to have a bird but won't live long enough to be a lifetime owner for the bird. I love your idea of getting a parakeet. They're tiny, but just as intelligent as the larger species. I'm sure there are plenty of them in shelters, too. Right now I have five cats so no birds for me, but I encourage you to give a tiny birb a home!
why not adopt an elderly rescue bird?
@@mehere8038 Good suggestion. Clberka, if you really want a bird, you may look into adopting a senior bird. I bet many people pass them by.
💯 The OP and this whole thread.
There are so many sad stories about these birds. Thank you for sharing a happy one and thank you for loving him so much.
I did not know that.
@@justlee4now449 Me neither! Mind you there are also so many sad stories concerning humans too and other horrific animal cruelty taking place in this messed up world!
He is a beautiful bird with a great personality. You were both very lucky to find each other.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful story. I hope you have Vandal for all the wonderful years. 💕💕
So happy that Nadia and family realize parrots have a very long lifespan and are already planning for pet parent transfer when the time comes. One of the saddest videos I've ever seen was made in a sanctuary for birds who had imprinted and then been abandoned. The images of those poor - quite literally insane - birds still haunt me. Much respect to this family!
Such a heartwarming video. You were destined to be together, no doubt about it.
They rescue us so gently , and with such open hearts. They know who Loves them!
Found the bird commenter.
Love the story, he waited a long time for the perfect parents I bet. Praise God he found them🙏
Awww he’s beutiful
All love to Vandal and his beautiful family ♥️♥️♥️
“He was hanging upside down screaming” me too Vandal. Me too..,😳❤
Lucky woman. Macaws rarely say so many human words !! They make their own sounds but they are not talkers like other parrots can be. They are though very affectionate ! Beautiful birds!
It’s true there are so many parrot breeders out there filling the rescues with unwanted parrots..😥
I loooove how happy and safe the parrot looked in the picture
Adorable, so well suited it’s a miracle they found each other. Stay well and happy all of you.
I love this story ❤🦜
Omg can't get over how smart he is he even whispers lol so adorable
I pray for a day when rescues are obsolete. Until then, keep loving and helping. These birds should never be "pets".
How can people be so cruel if thebirds noisy theres a problem happy you rescued him❤❤❤
I've seen this before and am so happy to see it again. Macaws aren't known for their speaking abilities, but yours is is exceptional .The whispering is wonderful.
Ahhh. He's beautiful!!!?💯💕❤️
Well Vandal is one smart cookie because he chose his people very very well. You are a beautiful family! Wonderful to see an animal so loved and cared for and giving the same right back to his people.
Thank you for saving him as well 😊
What a beautiful sight to see a happy macaw, so well taken care of! Vandal was so sad and neglected and now he is a magnificent macaw. Superb job!!!
It would take a pretty cold heart not to melt when Vandal said "Papa!" I am thrilled Vandal found such a wonderful home. Parrots pick up the actions of others they are raised around, so it is no wonder if he was with a person who swore and threw tantrums Vandal picked up that behavior. The longer he is with your wonderful family, the more he will emulate you and your family. He is a character and so much fun!
I have a cold heart then because I’m breathing
I absolutely loved this❤️
You’re beauty wish I could watch you smile 😊 endlessly @ shelinda
Vandals is so adorable! Thank you so much for telling your story!
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
Kudos. Parrots can give so much unconditional love - they bond with their loved ones more intensely than a human - and that unconditional love can be healing and uplifting. Six years ago I went through a traumatic change when I got sick, lost everything and was even homeless for a while, and the only reason I'm still here is my parrots. They are flying antidepressants who can heal our pain, but they have to be treated with respect, dignity and compassion.
"more intensely than a human"
Sure...
Flying antidepressants 😂😂
💯 this! My parrot has kept me on this planet for decades with my depression from disability! I’ve had him for 31 years now, and I don’t know how I’ll manage when it’s his time. He’s a Pionus, so he doesn’t have the mega-lifespan of these macaws. He’s already showing a lot of old age signs. 😢
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 youre gonna be okay. The only thought of losing a pet hurts so much. Don’t think about it yet. It’s nothing you can ever be prepared for. Just have a good time with your baby as long as It is here and be grateful to have such blessing in life. You are not alone. Life can be so beautiful. You are beautiful and im sure that spending his life with you is such a blessing to him as well
This is so sweet!!!
Beautiful rescue...thank you for sharing and for your loving heart!
💙
Rescuers and rehabbers are the best our otherwise disgusting species offers. THANK YOU!
We need more humans such as her and her family!
You’re beauty wish I could watch you smile 😊 endlessly @giselafuege
Thank You 💐for sharing Your Story ! Very Touching & I feel Grateful 💖for Your Love to This Adorable🦜 little Soul !!!🙏
Such a beautiful story! Thank you for sharing your grief, in honesty and humility. This was very touching. I hope your family has a lifetime of love and good memories with Vandal!
Sweet parrot. He is meant to be with you.🦜😊
What a beautiful family adopting a rescue parrot. ❤️ God bless you for helping a pet who needs love. 🙏
why wouldn’t anyone want him? what a personality. this story brought tears to my eyes. love him!! I’m so happy you have him now 💖
Perhaps they were having difficulties, perhaps they died, perhaps they turned out to be allergic (happened to be the case with me)... but yeah, perhaps they were inconsiderate dickheads who thought of Vandal as a an accessory and got bored. Things happen. Glad in this case he found an excellent family for, hopefuly, the next few decades. 😄
so many people got parrots knowing absolutely nothing about them. it’s a tough animal to look after, especially such a big species like makaw. that’s why there are so many birds in shelters
@@shoelacedonkey indeed! But i think the OP meant why wouldn't anyone at the rescue want him, since the rescue person was saying that about this parrot.
