Tricker66 Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 Hi all. I wonder if anyone know if coffe is bad for a grey? The reasonI ask is coz my TAG Kiwi is totally nuts for coffe! As you all know, greys mostly put their beak down in the water/juice etc. Then lift her head and drink ehat they got. But when Kiwi gets some coffe I LITTERARLY have to lift her away!!! She use to snarl at me to coz she is detemin to have more! She ones landed on my left hand while I read a mail. I didnt notice she started to drink she she got " a little" to much I guess and by god!!! She was so wild that night! LOL Well enough. Question: Is coffe bad for a grey?

Caspersmum Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 Hi Jimmy, From everything I've read it's not good for them - although I have no idea why - I think there's another thread about this on the site, which might give you more information. On the other hand, I think that sometimes people are very cautious just because it's not known for sure - on the 'better safe than sorry' line of thought!

Moddy Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Caffine isn't so much good for them. Your not "spossed" to give them coffee, pop, sugary juices.. but Meh I know a little coffee isn't going to kill Kiwi but you might want to switch off I should have told you this when you told me over yahoo!! Lol but I forgot. She get's wild most likely cause of the caffine maybe try some soda, I give Tj soda all the time just not that much, as a treat when I have some and he looves kool aid.

Snoozy Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Caffeine is bad for them so are carbonated drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Snoozy said it right. They can't burp, that is why the carbonation is bad for them. And caffeine isn't good for any pets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 I second what Snoozy said, no caffeine, no soda drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest briansmum Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 brian got into my cup of tea this morning when i was opening the mail. i wouldn't have said what he did was drink, more like dip is tongue in it a few times. i'm not going to make a habit of letting him drink it i think he just liked the warm sweetness. dipping his tongue in a few times will not hurt him right?

Talon Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 No, I'm sure he didn't get enough to hurt him. I have heard of others that actually let their greys drink it occasionally, but I wouldn't recommend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
