Sister Rain’s Note: Happy Thanksgiving, friends. Piper, Mister Rain and I are so grateful for your support of Sister Rain and offer you this old joke we heard many years ago. Given the times that we live in, I need to preface the below by saying that you should NEVER…
As I have previously shared (“Love Is Love“), Piper has a girlfriend who just happens to be a hand vacuum. Occasionally, he will climb atop his gal, just because. Piper is living his best life and nothing makes me happier. Even though I want to be his #1 girl, I…
On occasion, we will let Piper play on the floor. We only do this when we are there to supervise but while watching him, he has the run of the living room. He likes to push his toys across the wood floor, or toss his ball to us and have…

Piper ain’t afraid of no ghosts; he loves bottles of all shapes and sizes. And his Mommy loves emptying them . . . #sisterrain #birdmom #adoptdontshop #parrotsofinstagram #conure #ahelpingwingparrotrescue #piper #abootifulteam
