Of all pets available the most intelligent are parrots. Parrots are the only animal that is capable of human speech; this is indicative how intelligent they are. Unfortunately many parrots owners fail to understand is that parrot may not be simply repeating what they have been trained to say, but may actually understand what they are saying. It is this incredible intelligence that makes owning a parrot a uniquely experience.

It is a lifelong commitment to provide them with companionship and care. Parrots are complex creatures that need plenty of patience, understanding and attention from their owners. They are very friendly and playful when given adequate attention and quality time. They depend on us for their good health and happiness, and we rely on them for comfort and enjoyment.
