We have 2 budgies Pepsi (6) (female), Dennis (5), Yorkshire Terrier called Candy..nearly 6 months old & some goldfish. We also had 2 hamsters but they died recently. Pepsi is very tame which is unusual for a female budgie. I sit & stroke Pepsi's head & it's as if she's hypnotised. Their cage door is open regularly so that they can stretch their wings...they fly in & out of their cage when they feel like it...sometimes they don't even come out. When we've been on holiday we've had friends looking after them & when we fetch them one can see that they recognise us. Candy is still in her puppy stages so she drives me insane at times. We only feed her dog pellets & don't spoil her at all. I also look after a 3 month old Yorkie puppy once a week...her name is Lotta. When we got Candy she was 9 weeks old & weighed 1,2 kg....Lotta is 3 months old & weighs 750gr!! The whole litter was very small.
