Meet Dr Harry's pet lorikeet

Everything you need to know about this feathered friend. - by Dr. Harry Cooper
  • 10 Sep 2021

Like a lot of us, Dr Harry’s family has grown over the past 18 months.  While some of us have gained new pets of the furry, four-legged variety, Dr Harry gained a new feathered friend, a rainbow lorikeet. If you’re thinking about following in his footsteps and owning a lorikeet, there’s plenty of things you need to know, from what to feed them, what to put in their cage and how to keep them entertained. With Harry’s advice a rainbow lorikeet might just replace a dog as man’s best friend.
