[Marty Update] My cockatiel, Marty, needs to learn to take oral medication willingly. Luckily, I have the best model for model-rival training.
Marty is starting a new oral medication for his hormonal issues. The veterinarian thinks that his unrelenting interest in nesting and other reproductive activities could be a sign of obsessive tendencies. He’s starting on Clomipramine, but I’d like to train him to take medication willingly since he’ll have to take it every day, possibly twice a day.
What are you lookin’ at?
(His foot is purple because he was eating blackberries earlier.)

Marty lost his tail last month. Here's his current growth!
How Marty lost his tail:
About a month ago, we were evacuated from our home because of wildfires. I wasn’t home when the evacuation order was given. I wasn’t allowed to go home to get my birds. Police officers kicked my door in around 1:30am that night and retrieved my birds! In the scuffle, Marty’s tail was ripped out.
Here’s my previous post about their rescue, if you’re curious.

Time for a RASPBERRY PARTY. That’s when you make as large a mess as possible with a single raspberry. If you don’t accidentally vacuum up raspberry remnants without realizing and inadvertently spread raspberry all over the floor, then it wasn’t a real raspberry party.
