Lulu’s Success Story

“Hi Bev,
The bird harness chest protector that I received from you, for my senior bare eye cockatoo is exactly what I have been looking for. I had only intended to foster this poor bird until she healed.

About 20 years ago she arrived all plucked with a bleeding hole on her chest. I never learned much about her history, but I assumed she was about 20 or so years old at the time.

From time to time I had her wear a collar which healed her wound. But poor girl I could tell she was miserable wearing the darn thing. As soon as I took it off , sure enough she would open up the wound. This went on for a few years. On and off with that collar.

Finally I made out of a small organic cotton sock, a sort of sweater. It help with the pecking to some degree. Also helped her keep warm. It looked tacky and sometimes her head would get stuck. Or the ties would get loose. It was subpar. As long as she was home with me I was able to watch her and make sure she was fine.

But whenever I had to leave town and take her boarding there were miss haps. And I knew Lulu was not happy.

I purchased other types of felt thingy’s but they were so bulky. They weighed more than Lulu. She wasn’t able to hold herself up. Ridiculous! Lulu is small and frail.

FINALLY I found Bev’s Bird Boutique! I saw the dove chest protector. I thought this might work! Indeed it is working great. I am so pleased.

I think finally her long term wound will heal forever. I am over the moon thrilled! This protector I got from you is so well made and so well thought out. I am impressed to say the least!

The size 6 works best for Lulu. I will order a few more to have as back up and change color.
Thank you Bev for following up and being so caring.

Maude’s Story

Hi
Im Maude 11mths old, a Princess Parrot from down under – Australia. Im not a typical Princess Parrot, Im what you call a Mutation version.

Im modelling the Padded Chest Protector made by Bevs Bird Boutique. This is my 2nd one that Bev made for me and it fits me perfectly and I love it, so does my owner as she says it is a “life saver”.

Why do I have to wear it ? Im very clumsy, not very co ordinated and in my owners words I’m “very special “. I cant fly very well, and I thought I could but I ended up braking my Sternum bone at 6mths old. My bone didn’t heal properly and it grew n grew, then I got an infection, so Ann my vet lady had to remove 1cm of my Sternum bone and 0.5cm off one of my ribs. I was getting better then my skin got another infection. I then had to be put asleep again to have to have more surgery to remove dead skin and sewed me with more sutures.

Its been 9wks now since 2nd surgery and Im feeling good. I have a 3cm scar and a 1.5cm scar on my chest and belly area. If I was to knock/or bang my chest my skin would break. Ouch !!

My owner sourced the world and couldn’t believe her luck when she found Bevs Bird Boutique, Padded Chest Protector.
OMG its the best ever. If I didn’t wear the chest padding, my mum wouldnt allow me out of my bedroom or let me go to work with her.
I will probably wear the vest most of my life, but thats ok because im alive and I shouldn’t be.

Thats my story

Love
Maude n Zoe
