I have been on so many flights with stinking and screaming babies and children and would have preferred to fly without them on-board, too! To the people that are leaving their pets behind do not give a sod about them , unless of course your pet does not love you then well done! A pet that loves you and is left behind often suffers from depression and may even die so have living with that!
If you love your parrot so much, ask him how to get there, I presume he can speak for himself!

A man took his parrot to the vet because it had been sick. The vet said, "I have good news and I have bad news. The bad news is, your bird has chirpees. The good news is, it's tweetable."


The old ones are the best.

Possibly, but that's disturbingly new.

If you are going to take this bird, you are going to have to accept that it will go in the hold, or not at all. You and Polly, will not, share a seat - find a decent pet transporter, and the parrot will suffer a bloody sight less on the journey than you will!

People weren't being unhelpful - you must admit some of the responses were damned funny, and I only wish I had the mental capacity to come up with some of these myself!

I suppose one could charter a jet and thus share the cabin with one's parrot?

Oh dear, perhaps you should seek your answers elsewhere, as despite what you say you have been given advice, and yes i have kids and pets and bought them both to canada 3 yrs ago, it aint rocket science

Did you guys BRING your pets to Canada or did you BUY them in Canada.

I know nobody is perfect but I'm Swedish and even I know the difference between brought and bought.

And some posters are perhaps thin skinned.

As has been pointed out by Novo, the question has been answered as well as this communities knowledge allows. Some usefull links were posted, the name of a poster who HAS brought a parrot over was mentioned, what more info does the OP seriously expect?

There were some funny posts too, nothing that appeared to be particularly mean spirited IMO. A sense of humour, and the ability to survive a bit of pub like piss taking is supposed to be part of being British innit?

Save that for the pub then. This is a forum intended to be a source of information and help people, not just brits as originally intended, moving to another country.

Not people with parrots on their shoulder, surely? I'd think that flaunting such flashy plumage would preclude the po-faced attitude you desire.
