    Perhaps “cage” was the wrong word - I meant pets I have to corral to a specific location…but I would prevent my cat from going outside so maybe that’s not it either lol

    So I guess it’s just back to my original point: I find the space and care accomodations required for birds to be much too inconvenient

      Oh that is an entirely valid point! And again, I definitely would not recommend birds to anyone, it’s that type of thing where you kinda need to stumble into by yourself. It’s just, like with rabbits, people still have misconceptions about keeping them in cages, and I’m always ready to correct facts about that… Since some people still get even those tiny round cages and put birds in them, it’s truly awful

        That’s my friend’s parents. They get little budgies and keep them in the worst cages which means they only get the worst parts of pet ownership
