Happy New Year! Jakey the cockatiel welcomes it by sharing Danielle's breakfast on the first day of the year. He does love our food, so we generally keep him in his cage when we are eating. Jakey is Jarrod's bird, and Jarrod especially made the cage for a cockatiel, with very little help, and all his own design - the cage that Snowbell the cat is currently exiting! It is a little hard to see in this photo, but the cage is curved over the top, so we cut the wood to fit the wire.

Jakey's cage is sitting on top of the rat cage which belongs to the 
de Boer's - we were rat-sitting while they were away on their lovely long trip. Both the rats passed away before they arrived back in New Zealand, which was not unexpected, as they were advancing in years, but still a sad loss for our friends and for Bianca who was holding one as it breathed it's last. She would love to have a rat or rats of her own, but can't until some of her current pets pass on.
The cats do like to check out Jakey's cage when it is open, and the top of the other cage is a good place from which to stalk the budgies!
