Hi guys! A couple of months back we started walking our elderly neighbor's dog, and as we got to know her we realized that she has an African grey that bit her as a teenager 20 years ago, requiring plastic surgery. She hasn't taken him out since. She's a great person but it hurts my soul to see him sitting alone in his cage all day. He only liked her husband, who has since passed on. What can I do to help him? My dad is currently trying to make friends but I don't know if it's safe or not. He hasn't gone out of his cage in about 17 years. (the bird, not my dad lol) I don't want to hurt her feelings but I always feel so bad for him. Because she bit him, she's afraid to even put her hand in the cage. (the cage is OK, maybe 3 feet by 2 feet, but not nearly enough for being kept in for 17 years.) He gets fed and all seed diet with veggies and fruits occasionally, and my neighbor talks to him a lot, but he never EVER gets taken out.
