Finding That Perfect Cage
Your bird needs space to stretch its wings. Select a cage with plenty of room for your bird to move around. You can’t go wrong providing a little extra. A cage that is too small will make life less pleasant for your bird. Pet Supermarket carries a wide variety of cages for you to choose from. Look for one with a removable tray, which makes cleaning the cage quick and easy.
Plenty of Perches
Perches are very important and should be placed a comfortable distance from food and water. By varying the shape and diameter of your bird’s perches, you will offer a variety of footholds to promote healthy foot structure.
Clean as Can Be
Avoid cleaning your bird’s perches with water, since the wood can remain damp. Instead use a pet scraper to clean your bird’s perch and protect the health of his feet.
Activity Time
In the wild, birds spend lots of time playing. They strip bark from trees, swing on vines, and fling leaves and twigs. Treats and toys provide a substitute for what is found in the wild. Toys and treats offer reward, exercise, and relief from birdie boredom.
Healthy Play
Playing is essential for healthy mental development. Exposure to a wide variety of objects encourages a bird to be more confident and less fearful. Toys also encourage movement and muscle contractions that increase blood circulation, coordination, and dexterity.
Birdbrains like Fun
Look for toys that encourage exercise, mental stimulation, and appeal to birds’ instinct to forage and tear things apart. Our associates can help you choose toys for your kind of bird.
Busy and Fit
Play up to your bird’s singing, dancing, or chewing skills with toys he’ll love! Birds are remarkably agile, so be sure to outfit their cages with accessories that they can use to “work out.” Toys should be rotated frequently to avoid boredom. Remember, a busy bird is a happy bird.
