12 Dangerous Things to your Cockatiel
There are many things in your house that can be dangerous to cockatiels or any bird. Your cockatiel could be in contact with many very dangerous products without you even knowing it.
The biggest cockatiel killers are
- Teflon
Teflon is probably the most dangerous thing for your cockatiel. You find mostly teflon in pans to cook food. If you let your pan on the oven it can burn and the smoke it makes can kill all the birds in your house. Be really careful with this since it is a big cockatiel killer. - Caffeine
Be careful never to give coffee to your cockatiel because it could be its last cup! It contains theobromine which is highly toxic to birds. - Alcohol
Even if it is obvious, don't try to make your cockatiel drunk. Their metabolism cannot digest it and they would only die from it. - Aerosol Spray
Never spray anything in a room with a cockatiel! If you need to, take the bird out of the room, spray and then wait at least 4 hours before putting it back. - Stove
Never bring a cockatiel near the stove or the oven even if it's off because one day it will be on and deadly and you will regret it.
Please save your cockatiel from all the dangerous things in your house before it's too late. Prevention is your best option.
