Obligatory:
I can attest to the force of parrot bites. I got chomped on the thumb by a bird that mistook my digit for the brazil nut I was holding. It was very painful, but I couldn’t scream for fear of scaring the bird.
Parrot: “Now that I see it… my talons are much more lethal than your puny claws… yes…Oh! Awake now?.. Nnooo… nnnnot quite. Hmm. You know, I could SPLIT!! you wide open like a ripe melon right now… in fact… !!!.. WHHOOAAA!! Ahem. Minding my own businesssss, just happen to be in the neighborhooood…”
Cat: “WTF”
A cockatoo can mangle your keys beyond repair faster than you can even form the thought “Noooooo.” Or just play with them, harmlessly. Best to stay on their good side.
Bird’s a baddass.
Freakin’ dinosaurs! The nerve!
“Oh, I’ve had a cockatoo in my time but I’m not seeing anyone right now…”
Pretty dangerous
Understandable.
Possibly - but with a bird this smart it is equally possible the situation would end up with the cat locked in the kitchen and a smug looking parrot waiting for Alexa to deliver its Amazon order of a hundredweight of brazil nuts.
