2. Purple
3. Oh gawd.. so long ago! My last holidays were in 2004 when I went to Paris for Christmas and even if I live in Quebec which is really cold in winter, I've never been freezing as much as I did in Paris, cause of the humidity!

Do you have any pets?
Oh Yeeeesss
I have a 6 year old ADORABLE female cat
I have 3 parrots (1 Quaker (Quaky), 1 Meyer (Lilith) and 1 Budgie Gripou)
and since my venerable 5 years old betta died this Monday, I just adopted a new betta fish who I named Moon (abrev. for Moonwalk)
Here is a little video of my Quaker I've made

In the past I've also had other cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and rats (who I loved and how I miss my rats, they are so lovely!)
You have so many animals!
What about animals makes you like them?
What are your cat's names?
Why did you choose them?
Do you live in an apartment or a house?
Do you speak French?
Have you ever been to the L'ourve?
If so, what was it like? I really would like to visit there some day. :yes:

I love the fact that they are faithful, the way you can't argue with them (lol) the way they are there for me, the way they react to things we do, they are so simple yet complexe at the same time, like parrots, they can make you go angry crazy at times since they are what's closer to a 3 year old kid in terms of intelligence (and manipulation LOL), I'm not gonna have kids so I'll stick to animals
What are your cat's names?
Her name is Chattie. The previous ones (died from diseases) were named Pacha and Ralphy
Why did you choose them?
I think it was chemistry, I just feel it, both of us have no idea what we're getting into, but I feel we both agree do jump in it. For my Quaker, I've worked with Quakers before and just felt in love with them, although they are very complicated parrots and maybe not the best to suit my personality, my Meyer, someone was selling her on web adds, she's been there for 6 months.. and when I finally visited her, I knew we were meant to live together, she's perfect (almost haha), my budgie, it's purely physical LOL, All my pets have grey as one of their color, and my budgie has no color like yellow, green of blue.. he's grey and he's just perfectly beautiful! My cat, it was love, saw her at the pet shop, she was 2 months old and looked so adorable and intelligent, and I was right, she' the brightest cat I've ever seen!
Do you live in an apartment or a house?
In a appartement with 1 bedroom, yeah it can be small for that many animals.. but I love their presence, and I keep it clean haha
Do you speak French?
Yes, french is my first language, I only speak english on the net!
Have you ever been to the L'ourve?
You mean the Louvres museum in Paris? If yes, yes I've been there when I went to Paris, but I only had 5 hours to visit, I almost ran in the rooms and walked fast to see as much as I can in the little amount of time I had, if you go there, take an entire day please LOL
If so, what was it like? I really would like to visit there some day. :yes:
It was beautiful, some of the paintings there I could have stared at for hours, I wasn't impress by the Mona Lisa though, maybe it was cause I thought it was big...and it's so small!!!

I work in an office for people who owns appartments buildings, nothing to do with animals, but I did work in a pet shop for 2 years in the past..
Don't EVER buy an animal in a pet shop. Search for a true breeder, it may be longer to find a good one, or further, but don't support pet shops, please. You have no idea what I've lived and seen there.

They are not mistreated by the people who apply to work there, cause they actually want to work there because they love animals.. which is also the reason why they stop working there after a while, when they discover how it really works, where the animals really com from and how many lies they have to say to the client when they have to sell an animal, especially dogs who most always come from puppy mills.
Seriously, avoid those places. I'm not kidding. I don't want to write here what I had to go through or what I saw as an employee, there are enough horror on the net already about animals.

I've always had dogs and cats, but they were all adopted or female of some friend had a puppies and we got puppy... always has been. We never buy from any kennel or even a pet shop. BUT....You taught his parrot to sing songs of Michael?

Hi Carine!
When was the last time you sent someone a letter or a postcard?
People still do that?
Seriously.. jeez... Might me loooong time ago... It's probably to my Mj friend in Finland actually, we used to send each other letters, pictures, magazine articles and stuff.. so it's was surely with her, but when.. before 2000 for sure!
Oh no wait! I remember! It,s still to her actually, but I sent her pics of her trip when she came here in 2008! ( I had an old camera still then ) So yeah 2008!

Is there anything non-Michael related that makes you giggle?

Yeah! Of course! When one of my pet does something stupid, or when my cat is rolling on the floor to get some time from me!
Some good lines in a movie too sometimes, I remember watching ''How do you know'' recently and burst out laughing at a line in the movie

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH I'M BAAAAD AGAIN! SORRY! LOL
No, I cut his wings a little so they don't jump on each others cages and try to eat each other (they all dislike the other ones... lol)
And as far as flewing out of windows, no, I always have a... in french called ''moustiquaire'' so I can open my windows, have air circulating and they still can't go out.
and I sometimes take my Quaker out for a walk, then I use his Aviator Harness, a harness with a extensible leash for parrot so if he tries to fly a little, the leash don't drastically stop, it slows him before coming back lol

I've never seen this "moustiquaire". :doh: I did not know there was such a thing and I've never seen anyone walking around with a parrot in Brazil. Well, I have a cousin that she had a parrot and he walked free through the house, he never ran away and sometimes she go out with him, he was on her shoulder... always. He lived for many years. :heart:
