Pink Pearl, the Moluccan cockatoo, lived alone without a feathered flock in her own little “bird room”, confined inside a cage to protect her from the family feline who openly and peacefully shared it’s life with the humans. Scared and alone watching the family drift apart with their focuses turning to higher education and a better way to provide for their financial struggles to compete with the changing world, Pearly Bird began to self-destruct one feather at a time at the tender age of four.

Screaming for freedom and for a chance to prove she that wasn’t the “wild animal” she was accused of being only caused her to being imprisoned for eleven more years behind the cold, deaf bars of her cage. Finally, one day a caring angel answered her calls, giving her a chance to finally be understood and provided with the opportunity to be free to learn and grow within the strict, complicated, human environment.

Now at home without predators by the hands of a loving couple and their adopted parrots, Pearl begins to thrive and develop becoming once again the happy, healthy exotic family member from a small island devastated by self-destruction and neglect.
