Cause I look deeply into their eyes. I really look at them. I can commiserate with their condition. I can see similarities, between them and myself. I have things in common with this Peacock. Yes I do. For a simple example: He wears blue. I love the colour blue. Why does he need to be caged? If you feed this animal, it's going to stick around. Why can't they *and yes there are about 6 of these in this one, tiny spot* have more room in a less confining area?
Cages stink. I don't cage my dog's anymore after we learned "where to potty" we put them away. I just don't like cages.. and I don't see the need. I have wild turkeys who roam in the area where I live. I'd be honored if and when they stop by my yard to eat the grass & moss on my front lawn. We've had Deer come over for a apple or two and I was quite pleased just to hear that they happened by. We need to LOVE the animals who live amongst us more & stop caging and getting rid of them. They belong here too. They were born on this planet, so how can they be considered a nuisance?
How do people who hate or kill animals live with themselves? Don't they see? Animals are alive too & belong here.

I'm agreeing with this post, Heather! I can't stand to see caged dogs or caged chickens or any such critter when they could roam freely or at the least have a large space to be. Even when my son had his pet rat, Benny was let out of his spacious cage on a very regular basis and would sit on our shoulders as we watched tv or walked through the various rooms of the house. I have fond memories of that rat; though other people think I'm weird for getting attached to him, Benny was quite special. But I digress... thanks for your post and your love of all the animals!
Thanks, Rebecca. I love how you cared for Benny. All of my pets whether short term visitors or longterm pets have always gotten the best treatment I could muster. Just feel so badly for these birds. Benny sounds so wonderful! I've long wanted a rodent for a pet again, we had hampsters a long time ago. Miss them so. XO :)
