It looks that way. You may have to buy from a site from your country.
I am confused. The vet recommended me this site and it is the only one I can get a quality one. The ones in my country are zinced or the space betwee bars are large. I will have to look on Amazon to see if I can find anything that will ship to me.

The UK dialling code is +44

I don't think I can proceed with the purchase, since it does not let me continue with the details of the purchase.
I have found some cages on a site from my country. Can somebody tell me if they are ok?
Sorry, I do not have a translation for the pages, there are only pictures.

this one : Noble Colivie pentru papagali has a bar spacing of 2,5 cm
and this one : Caesar Colivie pentru papagali has a bar spacing of 2,6 cm

I know I should stop googling all this stuff, but I read about CaEDTA that normally it is used intramuscular for about 3-5 days.
My vet told me to use it for 28 days, but to give only 0,2 ml orally twice a day. I guess, since it is in such small doses that is okay. I am not trying to doubt him, I am just curious.

It wouldn't hurt to check on that. I thought the oral treatment was limited to five days with a rest period of five to seven days between additional treatments.

I believe that you can order toys and food but not cages overseas.

Im so glad that the surgery went well.Please do not hesitate to ask questions-that is how we all learn. This cage Caesar Colivie pentru papagali in my opinion is very dangerous.The decorative top sides can and will trap a birds head/neck at some point in time:( The cage bars should be no more then one inch apart.

Incorrect.
To the best of my knowledge and understanding they may only add surcharges and the delivery may take longer on bulky and expensive items. (Romania included).

Double the usual shipping to me
I think it comes down to being registered on the site.

@Ulis_Beast so when I do this it comes up as 19.98 delivery however it won´t let me order. Some items say they are shipped direct from their suppliers so you get the notice ¨ Unfortunately certain products (marked Direct Despatch) are only available for delivery to UK mainland addresses. Please change your delivery address or remove the product from your basket. ¨
When I have the cage you chose in the cart it says ¨ Please review your basket and select Standard Delivery or choose another item. ¨ But I cannot choose standard delivery, ony international delivery.

Same is for me. I ordered a cage from a site from my country.

Also, went to the vet today for her to get some meds and he told me to put underneath her feet some pet pads for dogs to change them twice a day, but she seems to chew on them, which I think is not that great. If you could suggest me something else, that would be great.

Non pilling fleece - it is cheap, no loose fibres and dries super quickly after washing.
Either buy a few metres, or get a few pieces so you can wash and alternate to keep the area clean.

The Noble cage is far, far too small.

The Caesar cage is a better size but the decorative sides with the spokes is dangerous. I know that you may not have much choice, so I would get this cage but put some kind of covering over that part of the cage so the bird cannot get their head stuck.

I have already ordered the Noble cage (cant cancel it) since the vet also recommended me getting that one and it was the only available one and I can't wait more time since Yoko is getting impatient and restless in that small travel cage.

The internal dimensions of the Noble cage are only 23 x 21 inches/59 x 54 cm. The seed guard is included in the external dimensions, making the cage look bigger.

Alexandrine parrots have an average wingspan of 25". The Noble cage won't allow your bird to even stretch her wings fully. As such, the cage is inappropriate as a long-term, permanent cage. If you can't cancel the delivery and can't get any other cage then you can use it for now, but please try to get hold of a bigger cage as soon as possible. The Noble cage might do as a sleep cage.

This could help..
I checked, checked again and double checked then proceeded to checkout (without a problem)
The shipping costs on all cages is 99€ (to Slovenia).

Have you called them?
Ask to cancel and say you will reject the delivery so it is sent back unopened and untouched.

If you can't cancel the delivery and can't get any other cage then you can use it for now, but
Honestly I wouldn´t. That´s so expensive. I´d really stand strong on returning this cage and buying a bigger one off the bat. Take it from someone who bought a bunch of stupid cages and wasted so much. I wish I just bought the more expensive cages I have now first, I would have saved loads.

When asked what I do over if I could, it's exactly this! Spend right the first time and you save money.
