My husband is going to be mad...

[KimKim]

I left Babalu on his stand in the kitchen for a couple hours, when I came back he was on the floor. Something out the window must have spooked him.. This is what I found. Bad bird! He hardly ever gets down.

[Azzie]

Naahhhh not bad bird. It's what parrots do, they chew and destroy stuff. Maybe don't let him out on his own next time lol. At least it was only a cupboard, and not an electrical wire.

You should see what my 'Too has done to the crown molding in my living room - just another excuse to redo the living room..........lol.

[Luvparrots]

Hmmmmm, I wonder what Babalu wanted out of that cabinet!!!!! Is that were you keep the good treats KimKim???????

[Acappella]

Quick, a broom, some fine sandpaper and some white paint, and he'll never notice! lol

[KimKim]

Yes, my fault.. he hardly ever jumps down, and I did make sure a while back, that there were no wires on the ground just in case this happened. When I let him walk around on the kitchen floor, for some reason he always goes to that same spot, I do not know why, that is the below the sink cabinet. I always thought the cabinets were painted, but it is like a plastic shrink wrap coating??? But sanding it and a little paint will make it less noticeable thanks.

Turns out Matt did not get that mad. Yay! He was also surprised on the way they were made.

all greys can be like that lol, our Georgia always goes on the curtain pole she likes to climb up and down them and her beak's made 2 lil holes plus she always seems to poo on them occasionaly so there always having to be washed, at this rate we will have to get new ones haha

Yeah, it's a spray-on coating done in the factory, I forget what it's called. Actually alot like the finish coat on a car - you'll never copy it exactly. If it really bothers you, it looks like a standard door. You could always buy a replacement at a home improvement store. Watch that Babalu doesn't make a habit of it, the paint finish can't be good for him.

[Azzie]

Can't you use some putty to mold into the damaged area?

[katana600]

Pah, that is what I call patina, it is what lets objects tell their story. I think that rooster did it, not sweet Babalu. I am glad that your husband wasn't mad.

[KimKim]

He will not be staying outside of his cage unattended until he can redeem himself! ...hmmm maybe he hates roosters! I have them all over my kitchen!

[KimKim]

Matt said he was having a bad day already, and when I texted him the pic he said he LOL'd to himself... That made his day I guess. To mad to be mad?? How can he be mad at that face anyway??? LOL

[judygram]

How can he be mad at that face anyway??? LOL

 

True but my first response was he could get glad the same way he got mad! That will be a lesson never to leave her unattended when she is out and about for no furniture is off limits, glad it wasn't as bad as it could have been.
