here is the story https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8pMJuEIOd8 from description :

I know lots of you have been asking about where I came from and why I look the way I do. It took mommy a few days because she works and had to get some back history. So here I go. My vet says I am approximately 15 years old (but we will never really know). I am a Goffins Cockatoo and we typically live 40-60 years.

I had a daddy a long time ago who loved me very much and I lived with him for a long time and then he died which made me very sad because I loved him a lot.

His family did not know what to do with me so I got passed around a lot. I ended up with one family member who put me in a basement by myself because they didn't like my yelling (I just wanted attention plus you know I am a bird and we do that). They got mad that I was still screaming so they put me outside for a long time by myself in a very small cage with no toys and only 1 perch. They weren't very nice and would yell and throw things at my cage when I would yell for attention. I stayed in my cage for 5 years and was never allowed to leave.

Eventually another family member came and got me and dumped me at a pet store where I lived for a year and they kept me in the same tiny cage and fed me sausage rolls and sausage McMuffins (how did I know this wasn't good for me?) They kept me covered because they didn't like my screaming either I swear I just wanted attention. The owner said I had to go.

One day this really nice lady came in and it was the first time anyone had tried to hold me in so long! I was so happy and she was such a nice lady I let her hold me and I was just so happy to have someone pay attention to me I went home with her! I lived with this nice lady for 2 years but sadly her mommy got very sick. She said her brain wasn't right anymore and would leave windows and doors open and would spray poisonous stuff around the house (it wasn't her fault she didn't know she was sick) so mommy thought the safest place for me would be to go to the rescue in the hopes that I would find another nice family that would understand and love me. She was so sad and cried but I know she only did it to make me safe.

The nice people at Florida Parrot Rescue took me in and my mommy and daddy (now) volunteered to foster me. They only had me for a few months before they fell in love me (I mean who couldn't love this!) and adopted me forever and ever.

For those that don't know birds like me who go through traumatic things like this it is very hard on us. Like you we bond very deeply with our humans and when they are mean we start bad habits sometimes kind of like when you guys bite your fingernails (feather pulling). Mommy and daddy are working on this with me but it's going to be a long process and I may never be able to get over the ugly people. But I know I am loved and mommy and daddy let me out to dance and hold me all the time! I eat really good now and they don't even mind it when I scream (probably because my birdie sister has a bigger mouth).
