Cockatiel singing to a cat

One of our cockatiels, Kiki, is singing to our 19lbs cat, Samuel. The other cockatiel's name is Chip.
2011 November 09: The saddest day for us: Chip, our little baby has passed away after battling liver cancer for 11 months. We are devastated. Rest In Peace our dearest baby.... What a sad day.... Thanks EVERYONE who offered their sympathy.

Cat is like: how do I turn this thing off?

Bird replied, "If you sleep on my cage, you listen to my playlist!"

[@tovawald7735]

I think the cockatiel Kiki is expressing affection for the cat. The cat responds by reaching out to it lovingly with his paw . I'm sorry to hear about the other cockatiel, Chip, who has passed away. It's not easy to accept. Cockatiels are so cute with their red cheeks. I never had one But I do look after outside cats where I live. .

Kitten looks like he's trying to figure out where the sounds are coming from...

Bird: I love to sing! Don't you like my song? Cat: Shut up, man. I want to sleep. Smart bird: Um, let's stay away from the cat.

So sorry to hear about Chip passing on. :( Pet death is always horrible.

[@JaneRathbun]

A pet gives unconditional love and makes us a better person. How lucky we are to receive this tremendous gift!

[@nobodycareswhatitis]

He will start signing when he is happy, lol. Chip was singing his head off in sunny mornings for example, or after food, or whatever made him happy. I'm no expert, but this was his thing.

[@nina009na]

this is the first time that i know that birds can have cancer poor thing :(

My grandmother was battling alzheimers for years, and during those years I took care of her cockatiel, Tweetybird. She ended up dying last year and a couple weeks later he developed cancer and died as well. They really are such wonderful pets. I'm sorry about your loss. ):

[@SOSphantom]

The cats instincts say, "I must kill my prey." The cats heart says," it's sounds beautiful." Thus the cat practically pets it. :S

[@HirXeBomb]

Love the cat, how gently and with love patting the cockatiel

[@mohmedelmhia9534]

" R.I.P ur baby 😢😢😢😢😢"

How wonderful they are together, you are so blessed. I am so sorry for your loss. God bless.

Chip was born in April 2001, so 10.5 years old.

So painful to lose a family member, whether they are humans, cats, dogs, or birds. Totally hear you. Time heals. A lil bit.. Thanks for being such a wonderful person!

[@roberttaylor9767]

ITS SO SO SWEET I WISH MY CATS IS SO SOFT WITH MY BIRDS THEY JUST WANT TO KILL THEM

It's great seeing how friendly some birds can be when properly socialised.

[@cloud8222]

Precious little souls. A delight to watch.

[@billstmaxx]

[@rodrigo-vl7bi]

I think he is freestyling

+Peter D i presume hes referring to the many forms of deadly bacteria they harbour in their mouth. my cat wouldn't eat my bird but she did play with one and it lead to him dying few hours later from saliva

[@SrLouise]

my brother-in-law had an African Grey Parrot that lived amicably with their (indoor) cat. After he grieved Bocephus, he got a baby African Grey who was skeletally deformed (breeder would have destroyed him if he took him back) so this lil HIGHLY vulnerable, bright, funny bird lived with their cat until she passed away last year. she never EVER attempted to even smack him (and he SO harrassed her!) the love & affection cross-species can be deeply sincere & truly awesome!

[@osga21]

I think your cat is broken

[@glitterattigrrl]

The saddest day of my life was when our songbird passed away too, at least you have footage of them to look back on that will bring you bittersweet memories, but also a comfort and joy of their life!

[@nakaroxx]

almost unbelieveable that both werent raised together and still they are like friends

[@milhouse901]

Masters of whistling, these birds

[@Poplopo]

Awww what a sweet bird! That cat is so gentle with them too :D

[@utesby6]

my baby cockatiel Precious was about 21 years old when she passed this February. It was so sad but she lived a good long life just like your baby Chip. Thank you for posting this video I love birds and the joy they bring.

[@Sunrise2912]

your birds are so pretty and smart, and your cat is gentle with them too. I can imagine the harmony and love in your house.

[@thegh0ST505]

Kiki sang so beautifully!! I am enjoying her singing with utmost pleasure. They three (Kiki,Chip,Samuel) are so beautiful too. Its sad knowing little Chip has passed. I knows how terrible the feelings was losing our little baby. Sending my condolences to you.

[@robinsydney140]

I will never favor having cats while having birds. No matter what, the bird will always be the one who loses.

[@barcalonga]

what a good cat! He knows he's being watched, so he's being extra gentle, but testing you! ...and the birds seem to know it - cute!

[@5809AUJG]

Sweet and lovely. Thank you for sharing this.

[@sallystokes3664]

Now seriously who could dislike this video?? I have 3 cats, my cat Oscar I could see doing this. We have rescued several birds, a a baby squirrel and a baby bunny, He has always been so protective until we were able to get them to the proper rescue facilities. I have 1 cat that would have devoured the bird and 1 that I just don't know what she would have done. I love this!

[@bobilfabbro]

I'm so sorry about your loss. Is never easy when a pet leave us... Be strong!

[@siuol0002]

i do not know at first the feeling of losing a pet. but after I watched one video, I realized and by your post, i felt it more sadder.

[@sherryabbottbrooks6366]

I love how sweet you cat is with the birds... I am sorry you lost your chip..fur baby or feather baby it hurts..they are such a part of our families.. thank you for sharing such sweet moment

[@yohananeliyahu4429]

Sorry to hear that. We also lost dear ones, it is so hard! My hope is to be reunited with them one day in the next life. I believe!

[@mzkhilari]

Cockateil 1: *sings* Cockateil 2: Don't stop singing!!! Keep singing and he won't eat us!!! SO CUTEEE :)

[@empie45]

so sorry to hear of your loss. We always are so sad when we lose any of our pets.

[@CuteFluffyBugs]

The bird's SOOOOOO cute, poor Chip, God bless him.

[@teapotwar]

R.I.P. I really liked how fluent Chip was with his singing.

[@rabergeron28]

The bird sings beautifully! But never in my life would i leave my birds that close to a cat!

[@Madman226]

Sorry for you loss. He was defiantly a talented little guy.

[@Davo_1991]

i love it when they sing they stick their head out and straighten their back, it's so cute!!

[@holmsatlarge]

So sorry to hear of your birds passing. It is so hard to lose a beloved pet. I know that for sure, I have been through it too. This is a cute video.

[@Imacuser223]

Music has charms to soothe the savage beast. That is incredible

[@moonluva71]

I would never put my birds in harms way....too much temptation for the cat. Natural instincts run deep.

[@avatarguitar376]

My cat also seems to like it when I whistle. She will come to me when I do it, rather than stay away or whine that she's upset. This cat seems to find bird whistling interesting and is being gentle with the bird. And the fact that the birds don't seem to fear the cat, is also noteworthy. Not sure how they'd get along without human supervision, tho ...

[@motonegros]

Absolutely beautiful, you just cheered me up, thanks!

[@windymoore4009]

Reminds me of my cockatiel Topper that I rescued back in 1969 and my folks cat Dusty which my ex and I acquired after my folks died. Whenever the cat would put his paw up like that into the bird's face, Topper would nip him. After just a few times of doing this and getting nipped, the cat stopped. They became the best of buddies. In fact, if Dusty was out of sight for too long of a time, Topper would call him and the cat went running to him. Thanks for sharing this. Sorry about Chip!

[@thrillionsofheavens]

beautiful harmonious gentle KINGDOM.

[@phoebs01]

This is sooooo cute how he's serenading the cat!

[@unusualmusician]

Now that's a peaceful kingdom. It's amazing how open-minded critters can become as long as they're well fed. Love the way the whistling just keeps rambling on and on. And the cat remains so gentle and magnanimous. Adorable.

[@TheWorldofNed]

The bravest Cockateil ever!!!

[@iamonlylucky]

I'm so sorry to hear about Chip. It is so hard when they cross over.

[@khepri152]

when I got my cockatiel he wouldn't leave his cage for about a week - I just left his cage door open and eventually he came out, then I started putting him on my finger and stroking his tummy and the more he got used to it the more he wanted. its a slow process but really worth it - he now comes and finds me wherever I am in the house, seeking attention

[@emmavalle2267]

The bird is giving a serenata to The Cat!! Its so sweet!

[@DutchHeartMonger1]

Sorry to hear about Chip. But what an amazing video. The cat is so gentle with them.

[@LilyNoelleArt]

My cockatiel LOVED to sing to my cats! He was in love with them! I miss him. So very sorry to hear that chip has passed on. I know that is so, so difficult.

[@TheJordanpe]

He's getting swatted at, but he keeps on going! The show must go on! I love it.

[@irenez9382]

Precious video. Sorry for your loss.

[@windymoore4009]

This reminds me of my cockatiel Topper I had many years ago and my folks cat. Topper would sing and talk to Dusty. If the cat wasn't in the room, Topper would call for him and Dusty would go to him. Dusty learned early not to mess with the bird as he received a few good bites in the beginning. After that, they became pals. Cute video! Thanks for sharing.

[@Kellmar384]

he is so awesome! sorry for your loss!

[@communistjesus]

Cockatiel has the BEAST UNDER MIND CONTROL WITH ITS MELODY...

[@WINFIELD32750]

I dont know if i would challenge the cat's instincts so directly, but thats you

[@licksnkicks]

This is absolutely hysterical. What a good cat! Not following his instincts!

[@venusb81]

Awww to cute , my parakeet is the same way with my cat but he'll sit on her head and just chat away. I love watching them two interact , its the cutest thing.

[@mattisprettycool]

its cute how the cat is being gentle

[@YellowKazooie]

CAN'T. HANDLE. THE CUTENESS!

[@AS495AS]

The cat is surprisingly gentle. I thought he'd take a big swipe at the little guy!

[@SCK912]

So sorry to hear about your bird, Chip. Samuel is a beautiful cat.

[@InvaderRChris]

The 2 Cockatiels and the Cat are both Really Cute.

[@PierreRipplinger]

How adorable when the cat pats the bird gently and carefully! "lemme touch ya buddy, imma not hurtin' u, imma not eatin' u yet, U too small"

[@cumberlandite56]

OMG! That is so cute! And what a patient cat.

[@theauddity2364]

Thank you!

[@cobaltfog]

We had a cat that put up with the birds indoors. He chased the outside birds, but inside he knew better. We found him on his side yowling in the yard one day with a starling hen latched on under his foreleg where he couldn't reach. He needed saved from the angry little bird. He wasn't as lethal as he thought anyway.

[@aliciaanne]

What beautiful birds and a gorgeous cat! This video made me smile. So precious. ~

[@kepakkan]

it's like listening to someone take a shower from bathroom hahha so cute,,cant wait to hear my cockatiel sings too

I love the cat's reaction to the beautiful birds singing. :>

[@LilahWoods]

Just needs lots of love, attention, positive re-enforcement, respect and patience :)
