Pippin has developed a strange fascination with eating our TV remotes. We’ve had to buy 2 replacements already in as many days. They aren’t kidding when they say “keep out of reach of children”!

As if molting wasn’t already bad enough by itself, this is the sort of help Olivia has to rely on…

It’s molting season for little birdies everywhere, and Olivia is no exception. Before long, the house is going to be covered in loose feathers. Anyone interested in a handmade down pillow or an authentic quill pen, let me know!

Somehow, we’d never given Olivia millet as a snack before despite it’s supposed popularity with parrots. Lucky for us her latest subscription box came with a snack bag of golden millet and…let’s just say she’s enjoying the treat a little too much.

When visiting Trevi Fountain in Rome, we of course had to throw in our three coins and make our wishes. Good thing Olivia wasn’t there, though - most birds love anything shiny, especially coins, and Livi is no exception!

Sadly, the animals were not able to join us on our recent trip to Italy. But if they had been there, I have no doubt they would have loved the food just as much (or even more than) we did!

What better way to close out a campfire cooking saga than with some scary stories around the fire? Although maybe it was a little TOO scary for a certain couple of pups.
