You can more or less judge the nature of humans by the company they keep. For those who are willing, it might be interesting to know what pets form part of your domestic household. We have a 5-year-old Australian Cobber Dog named "Rutland's Governor Grrizzwald of Corn-on-the-Cobberdog (Grrizzy for short)" who loves to accompany Opera Divas in full form with a range that goes from basso to soprano (with ease I might add). We have a Brown-naped Cape Parrot (South African) that has a human word vocabulary that exceeds that of Donald Trump and probably also Danielle Smith... her favorite words are those that torture the dog (like "get in your crate" or "want to go potty" or "no barking".
In other avian friends we have a canary that we raised from hatchling (now an amazing 12 years old), a parrotlet that we also raised from hatchling (I say "we" but it all falls down to my lovely wife of 30 years -- Laura -- who has the patience and tenacity to deal with hand feeding 30 some parrotlets in four different clutches, all but one gone to other homes), a Lady Gouldian Finch (male) who was accompanied by a female who died of egg stress not so long ago. We also have two adult Vietnamese Mossy Frogs who produce eggs at a rate of 2 to 4 at a time. We now have 4 Mossy Frog offspring from that process and they are the tiniest, cutest creatures ever!
