00:00 He's frustrated.
00:02 He's frustrated, but why?
00:04 Let's close the door so he doesn't fly away.
00:09 Oh yes, good idea.
00:11 Oh, you little demon.
00:14 Don't give him a peck.
00:16 It's fine.
00:17 Adorable.
00:19 But he's tearing his feathers.
00:21 That's what it looks like.
00:23 Because he's not tearing them around his neck or on his tail.
00:26 No.
00:29 This is a symptom of boredom or nervousness.
00:33 When these birds do not feel good, they start cracking feathers.
00:38 When something bothers them, they go completely bald.
00:42 I've seen parrots without any feathers, completely bald,
00:45 except in places they can't reach.
00:47 Oh my God.
00:49 He's frustrated.
00:50 He's frustrated, but why?
00:52 Do you have another one, or is it the only one?
00:54 It's the only one.
00:56 This one is, I think, boredom, because everything is fine,
01:01 he eats good, he drinks good, but he doesn't have anything to play with.
01:06 He's trying to keep him occupied.
01:09 What can I do?
01:11 Put a mirror in him.
01:13 Oh, okay.
01:15 And yes, sometimes putting a mirror in their cage
01:20 so they can look at themselves and talk to themselves
01:23 and so they're not bored will be a good idea.
01:26 Perfect.
01:27 Let's do that first.
01:28 Thank you.
01:29 Because two at the same time, it's too much.
01:33 Cockatoo's a fairly loud one,
01:35 so I'm going to try to get the mirror in the first trial.
01:38 Perfect.
01:39 Thank you, Dr. Paul.
01:41 Our look for Cookie is that these birds can live quite a long time,
01:45 and if he is not bored and is happy and can talk to himself,
01:49 he will live a long life.
01:51 Did you guys see him get hit by a car?
01:59 No.
02:00 Did the guy come to the door?
02:02 No, he just...
02:03 You saw him stop in front of you?
02:05 And Bella was lying in front of him.
02:07 I called our vet, he was closed on Saturday,
02:10 but he gave me an emergency number, so I went over there.
02:13 They looked at her, did a radio check,
02:15 and found out that Bella had a fractured pelvis.
02:18 So I decided to bring her here to see what we could do.
02:21 Good morning.
02:23 Good morning.
02:24 You have Bella?
02:25 Yeah, she's here.
02:26 I was looking at her radio, so I'm going to let her look over.
02:29 Yeah.
02:30 So, while she's here, I'm going to try to give her a rectal exam,
02:33 see if I can feel the fractures,
02:35 and see if I can tell how painful it is for her.
02:37 Okay.
02:38 And then we'll let you know.
02:40 Hey, sweetheart.
02:42 The thing I'm worried about most is that we're probably going to have to put Bella down
02:47 because she has a fractured pelvis and she's already 12 or 13 years old.
02:52 We'll be back in a few minutes.
02:54 Okay, thanks.
02:55 Dogs that get hit by cars have very bad injuries,
02:59 but fortunately, that's not the most common case.
