The presence of other pets, such as cats, in the home can pose challenges when adopting a rescued bird. Cats are natural predators, and even well-behaved ones might exhibit hunting behaviors towards birds, which can stress or harm the bird. It’s crucial to ensure the bird’s cage is secure and placed in an area not easily accessible to cats. Supervision during any interactions is essential to prevent stress and potential accidents. Consulting with a veterinarian on how to safely integrate a bird into a home with other pets is advisable.
