Shrek was having a hard time getting a picture of him...he's usually just a brown blur. He has been fun, but I have to worry about stepping on him and getting him to drink a bit of water is a pain in the rear.
More sedate moment:
That's about as cute as it gets! Animals sleep in the weirdest positions! Just like little children.

The only two cats he's been able to beat up this weekend.
I see a limitless supply of toys! Someone is indeed spoiled!
What a cutie!

I've had my Cockatoo, Spike(avatar) for about 24 years. When we moved to Florida I bought a large potted Ficus tree and put it near the window for sun next to Spike's cage. For 3 plus years the bird ignored the tree. One day I was working in the back yard and came in to take a break. My over 6 foot tree was reduced to an 8" or so stub with Spike sitting on top. He seemed to think I should be pleased at his accomplishment!
Claire, that's awesome!
My niece's cockateil came by his name famously. I was there when she picked him up from the pet store (a gift from us when her beloved previous bird died) and I held it while she made some lunch. She made KD and was eating it right out of the pot! The bird took off from my hand and landed right in the middle of the pot (it wasn't hot at that point) and started eating. His name? Noodles of course! And to this day, if she makes any form of Mac and Cheese, she gives him a little.

Do you think the rest of him will catch up to the size of his ears?Wild boy, finally conked out at work.

These stories have me in stitches!!! Birds aiming their poop.. priceless!!!
I have a couple of stories... I have two cats, brothers, orange tabbies. One of them, Kass, has a "pooch" belly, otherwise he's healthy. I think it came from gorging when he was a baby, from being sick and being the runt. His belly would expand as he ate, and his legs would slowly drift apart LOL!
Kass one day was after something, I still have no idea what. There was a shredder, a couch, and a bookcase. In the middle of the three, there was a little space, and Kass was seriously interested in it. He got in there alright, but I looked around after hearing him meow, and all I saw was his bum, completely flat up in the air with his legs sticking out - he was really stuck !! LOL ! I had to go pull him out...
Another time, Kass was in trouble, and DH was looking for him. There wasn't enough room to go behind the couch, and he was cornered - he panicked, and literally dove and slid under the couch, but he's chubby, so he got stuck halfway through with all four legs spread out flat! Here was this chubby orange tabby, halfway under the couch with his legs out.
