I have a male parrotlet, Albirdo Hot Wings, he will be one year old the 1st of May.
Since he is the only pet in our home, we let him free fly most of the time. Over the last few months he became territorial of a handled dish sponge. At first I tought I'd just let him have it. It wasn't used and he likes to pick it into little pieces.
Over the course of time, he would get defensive about it if I approached to do the dishes and that turned into him being defensive if we walked through the kitchen.
So, I removed the sponge.
My question is, are these sponges an acceptable toy for parrotlets?
We travel with him a lot, and I thought if it was safe, might give him a piece of sponge in his travel cage to keep him occupied .
