Day 6 of the 12 Adoptables of the HOliday Season - Niko from Parrot Adoptions Ontario

Hi everyone! I’m a sweet, sweet 28 year old majestic male Blue & Gold Macaw named Niko. You can find me in Bowmanville. My family LOVES me dearly but to really thrive I need to be the ONLY bird in your home so that I can get ALL your love and attention. I’m looking for a large bird experienced adult home – no apartments or townhouses due to my Macaw noise levels. Ideally someone home a lot or always. I was with my previous person for 21 years as an only bird where I was very loved and I thrived - the reason I was rehomed was because she passed away. I will bond with more than one person, but I will have a main person I get attached to...I just crave attention and if you give it to me, I will become your friend. I am an avid chewer; I need your undivided attention when out of cage as I will try to get down and explore with my beak. I can be very destructive if you don’t keep a close eye on me. I can talk, and scream if I’m bored. I’m hand friendly and will step up onto a dowel. I’m cuddly and will snuggle with my favorite person. Once you earn my trust, I am just the biggest lover. I will happily sit on your lap all day talking gibberish to you and getting loving. I can bite as most birds can. I have experience with dogs. I sure love having people around me and lots of out of cage time. I also enjoy music and singing.

If you are that special someone who will be home a lot, and will dedicate a lot of one-on-one time with Niko, please complete an adoption application located in the “Files” section or ask an admin for one.
