Toodles enjoying his new jungle gym

We love feedback. We especially love it when it comes from birds. Yep, you heard me right – birds.

Late last year we introduced the ability to review products on our website and the response has been fantastic. Good, bad, we  want to hear it all and not suprisingly, we do. What I didn’t expect was to hear from Toodles, an eco-friendly cockatoo.

See, apparently Toodles likes to play (as most well adjusted cockatoo’s do) and really enjoys swinging and squawking on a wooden clothing rack. It appears they make fantastic birdie jungle gyms. And, Toodles convinced his mom to email us this message (according to Toodles, he’s not allowed to type as he gets distracted and chews on the keyboard):

I’m the cockatoo who bought this drying rack and I just love it. It helps me keep in shape as I climb up and down all day long. It is a great place to sit and watch the birds (and deer and fox) in my backyard. Swinging upside down, while screaming and flapping my wings, is one of my favorite activities. Many of my toys are hanging from the horizontal dowels. However, my mom says I need a new one because I’ve chewed through it over the past year – even though I know I’m not allowed to chew on it and even though she gives me plenty of chew toys.My mom really loves me and buys me this rack even though the racks in the hardware stores are much cheaper. But they are made of treated, painted wood and that wouldn’t be good for me.

Thanks Toodles.
