You can feed your cockatoo fresh fruit along with a good quality mix that is formulated for cockatoos or even a parrot mix will do. Always make sure they have a fresh supply of water always available. Cockatoos love to play. You can purchase sturdy bird toys from your local pet store. You can fill a shallow bowl with water and let your cockatoo use it as a birdbath, but most will just enjoy a good misting with a spray bottle.
Cockatoos are very loveable and very affectionate.
They will go to great lengths to get your attention. They have been known to knock things over, squawk loudly or even at times bite just to get you to notice them. Cockatoo's mate for life and if not introduced to another cockatoo may very well choose their human companion as their mate, and will become bonded for life. Inc.
