He's Junior, but we call him Juni. We bought him when he was only two weeks old. Now we have already had him for thirteen years. I can't believe it has been that long!
He's a domesticated parrot, he stays on my shoulder, he eats with us. I haven't got any brothers or sisters, and he's like a little brother for me, so it's for this that I think he's special.
When he was little, he slept all the day. Now he's an hurricane! He's lively, (sometimes too lively!), he really loves sugar and other sweet foods, in particular watermelon and ice cream.
He thinks my mom is his mom, so with her he's really obedient and quiet. With me, instead, he loves to play with lanyards, clips and he likes to bite paper and everything he can reach!
He's so curious! Indeed, when he sees someone who he doesn't know, he wants immediately to go on that person's shoulder and give small affectionate pecks, just to know the person! My friends are scared of him, they fear that he could bite them, but they're wrong, Junior has never bitten anyone seriously! He's too easy-going to do this!
