I'm doing my part to uphold the reputation of umbrella cockatoos as being snuggle bugs. I'm Holly, an 8-year old 'too who loves to cuddle. Of course, there is a lot more to being a cockatoo, and a cockatoo person. I'm a bird of few words ("hello," "hi," and "I love you") but that's all I need to express many attitudes. On top of that, I bark, caw, and can do tricks. I perform the cute foot lift, roll over, and put a bead in a cup. This is great for showing off when I'm excited about meeting new people, especially children. Being a cockatoo, I sometimes yell, flap, or even nip if frustrated. But what fun we can have cuddling to make up! When we are bonded, I will follow you around the house. If you have time for me, and are familiar with cockatoos or willing to learn, I could be a most rewarding addition to your family.

Notice: Due to the notoriously difficult nature of cockatoos, Mickaboo prefers that cockatoos not be a households' first parrot. If you intend to house a cockatoo, please research the following websites:
