This was their cage before which was really just a place to perch at night and eat. For 12 years their cage door was always open and they were aloud to free fly around my office whenever they liked. Same with the doves. It was just a bird room and no cats were ever aloud in there so they were always safe from them.




But that was at the 'old' house. When we moved to this house 2 years ago which is new, hubby put his foot down and said no, they had to be caged and my office now has to be both bird and cat room which is why I had used to plexiglass, to make sure there was no way the cats could get them.

So after what happened I replaced the plexi with the wire front of an old cage which has a small door that slides up in the middle. It's secure and cat proof but anything the cats can get a paw through is just too tempting....and Spring is such a little tease with as you can see




This is the cage today. I had to add all the plants on the outside to just make it a little harder for the cats to get right up on that wire. There are no plants inside anymore, but they never messed with them anyway so it was okay. The only thing the birds have ever played with are those beads. I have a box of bird toys that either scared them or they ignore.

That's Alex in the window, and now that the plants are up everyone has pretty much given up and just look instead. And it drive Spring nuts that she cant peck at their paws anymore, lol!



And Spring who just had her 14th birthday. Her mirror is always messy because she like to 'tongue' it a lot.
