Thank you everyone for your replies. How nice to be in touch with other grey lovers I live in Winnipeg Canada and do have friends in the local Parrott Club that I will contact - this is probably the best idea. That being said, you (as a group) have reinforced how important my pet's emotional health is to me and I will ensure she is placed in the right spot. Thank you. John Lawrie

Wow, this site is wonderful. Thank you so much for your comment(s), I came to the right place with other bird lovers. My grey is the most important thing in my life and I will ensure she is left in a good location. Her cage is on coasters and can fit into a van. Opps, here she comes looking for me

Thanks Judy. This is my 1st attempt at options and you have pointed out a few. If she stays with a family member, which is an option, she still will not be out of her cage as she has bonded only with me (classic grey). So I fifured being in a cage is being in a cage. Do you think that just seeing activity around her even though locked up would be enought? My next step is to xontact our local bird club.

Hello everyone. This is my 1st visit here so I hope I am asking this in the right room. I own a beautiful 13 year old female and we have a wonderful relationship. She gets 3 hours minimum out time each day, usually more. This year I would like to travel away from my own for two months. I live alone. What possible alternatives to I have to ensure her emotional health when I am gone? Right now all I have scheduled is someone to change her food every second day, takes 5 minutes. Suggestions anyone?
