SKIPPY-KUNTA-DRAGON LADY
Skippy came to me in March of 1993 at the age of 7 years old. She was a Hyacinth Macaw and died in my arms as a result of feral cats attacking her.
Kunta was with me since age 10 days old. Kunta was sixteen (16) years old December, he died from an attack of feral cats.
Dragon Lady was a Blue Throated Macaw female. Attacked by feral cats.
I went into the aviary due to the alarm going off and I found the feral cat inside the Blue Throated Macaw males cage with attacking one of them. My dog helped me corner the cat till the Animal Control officer came to my house. Traps were put out in our neighborhood
for the feral cats.
Direct results from the hurricanes. My neighbor put my aviary roof up and with my calls( along with everyone else in Vero Beach) to the constracter I was promised and promised they'd come by.
I climbed on the roof and bolted the roof down myself after three birds were dead. I'd would have cried myself into the grave it not for the remainder of my birds needed me to get myself in order and quick so I could take care of them...
I put up preditor wire with screwing down into the rails.
I put skirting of wire around the place down under the dirt to keep out anything else.
I also had installed beamers around the aviary that if anything comes into the aviary it will go off along with a strobe light or two will go off.
