Default Saw Stanley on TV!

I was just flipping channels late this arvo and came across Stanley and his problem Parrot on Better Homes and Gardens!

Hopefully you have teached that little devil who is boss by now, right Stanley??

Can't believe you caught that on the tele, cashout....THAT crazy parrot is worse then ever now.....Followed Harry the vets advice and now he is so attached, he still follows me around the house...I think i overdid it with the 'hands on' approach.....if he sits on my finger, my wife has to prise his claws off to remove him...

Here's Harry the vet trying to talk some sense into Harry the Eclectus parrot.


And here's Harry trying to talk some sense into my wife!.

I thought the parrot looked smaller on the Telly. Great pics by the way!

Pets go through cycles. Our cat went through a phase where it would hide behind a corner and 'hunt' anyone's feet if they were wearing white socks (and white socks only). It took us about 6 months to get it to stop it.

Hopefully the parrot will grow out of it mate.

She wasn't the Mole, Fisty...Catrina was...though Kris lasted on the show till about the last 3 of ten contestants..then the script writers seemed to move in and work it that the unfortunate, unemployed young bloke from the country would win it...a bit of agro toward the end but she keeps in touch with the friends she made on the program..
Several of the contestants were offered $5000 to be the Mole which would have eliminated them from a chance at the 100+ grand.
