a little about me for those that have asked.

- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- I know lots of you have been asking about where I came from and why I look the way I do. It took mommy a few days because she works and had to get some back history. So here I go. My vet says I am approximately 15 years old (but we will never really know). I am a Goffins Cockatoo and we typically live 40-60 years.
I had a daddy a long time ago who loved me very much and I lived with him for a long time and then he died which made me very sad because I loved him a lot.
His family did not know what to do with me so I got passed around a lot. I ended up with one family member who put me in a basement by myself because they didn't like my yelling (I just wanted attention plus you know I am a bird and we do that). They got mad that I was still screaming so they put me outside for a long time by myself in a very small cage with no toys and only 1 perch. They weren't very nice and would yell and throw things at my cage when I would yell for attention. I stayed in my cage for 5 years and was never allowed to leave.
Eventually another family member came and got me and dumped me at a pet store where I lived for a year and they kept me in the same tiny cage and fed me sausage rolls and sausage McMuffins (how did I know this wasn't good for me?) They kept me covered because they didn't like my screaming either I swear I just wanted attention. The owner said I had to go.
One day this really nice lady came in and it was the first time anyone had tried to hold me in so long! I was so happy and she was such a nice lady I let her hold me and I was just so happy to have someone pay attention to me I went home with her! I lived with this nice lady for 2 years but sadly her mommy got very sick. She said her brain wasn't right anymore and would leave windows and doors open and would spray poisonous stuff around the house (it wasn't her fault she didn't know she was sick) so mommy thought the safest place for me would be to go to the rescue in the hopes that I would find another nice family that would understand and love me. She was so sad and cried but I know she only did it to make me safe.
The nice people at Florida Parrot Rescue took me in and my mommy and daddy (now) volunteered to foster me. They only had me for a few months before they fell in love me (I mean who couldn't love this!) and adopted me forever and ever.
For those that don't know birds like me who go through traumatic things like this it is very hard on us. Like you we bond very deeply with our humans and when they are mean we start bad habits sometimes kind of like when you guys bite your fingernails (feather pulling). Mommy and daddy are working on this with me but it's going to be a long process and I may never be able to get over the ugly people. But I know I am loved and mommy and daddy let me out to dance and hold me all the time! I eat really good now and they don't even mind it when I scream (probably because my birdie sister has a bigger mouth).
Anyway, I sure am happy now and now I get to dance my heart out for the rest of my life!

I love her. If she can dance after having a hard life then she's a beautiful angel. I hope you decide to keep her after fostering her because she seems to love you.
Thank you for all you do. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love when she spreads her wings when she really likes a song.
That’s one of her dance moves
Reminds me of when James Brown sang Please Please, and got down sayin, " I can't go on...." lol
2:16 ❤️ so cute
What wings
Iske pankh kaat diye hain😣😣
Its sad to see a bird who plucks, it tells you a little bit of what they’ve been through, I hope she recovers, she has a golden personality
It's just like us humans who self-harm in response to a traumatic past. Really sad.
*golden birdality
@@Joshua-dc1bs trichatillamania for birdies 😞
Sadly they don't recover their fathers at that age once they start plucking that badly. She's really happy now and will have a really great rest of her life.
How do they pluck from their back. Sounds suspicious
Such a beautiful and intelligent bird. We could all learn from her humbleness and her precious happy additude.
Thank you for being kind and caring to Griffi. I've always loved cockatoos, cockatiels, etc. though I've never had one as a pet. I can only imagine the mistreatment Griffi endured that caused her so much anxiety. I'm glad she's with you now and obviously loved. She is very special.
Had a friend who’s bird had the same issue due to stress. They made a sock to put over their bird and it’s feathers grew back ...
Yeah I was just trying to think of what they could do. I had a dog that got hot spots on his skin in the spring due to allergies hives or something and I had to put one of those plastic cones on his head when I went to work or he would gnaw at himself and I would have to get the spot shaved and give him antibiotics if it got bad and other than that he was pretty happy and healthy.
Marlene Mc'Cohen also does this with her cockatoo Jersey
@@AnnaLVajda: Sorry to hear about your dog. It might be mostly nutritional deficiencies. Try as high a quality of dog food as you can afford and add dynovite or a freeze dried beef organ mix to the food. It did wonders for our boy, Trace, who had the same problems. He’s been good for years now, since we changed his diet.
@@AnnaLVajda try rinsing the hotspot with baking soda (we call it Natron) . (not baking powder though.
This baby makes me so happy because she is happy now. Thanks you for taking Care of her.God bless ❤️🙏😘
She is so beautiful and full of joy. Thank you for giving her such a safe and wonderful, loving home. She always makes me so happy!
God bless her, birds that pluck at there feathers. Usually means they were neglected or traumatised
In some way. Glad to here you have her, and give her a great life.
We need more people like you..♥️
Can she recover her stress over time?! Hope so, as she is loved finally.😍🇩🇰🇺🇸🙏🌅📬🍀
Such a happy bird....now. You have a generous heart. Would love to see Griffee when his feathers grow in!
Oh my goodness she’s adorable. She’s gangster. She lifts her a little wing with the guy says headphones.
@Anni Runaway Holy crap are you triggered. Take a Xanax And relax. You don’t like the term I got it. I do. I overrule you. My life my choice buzz off
Poor sweet baby. Im glad she found a good home!❤
I love her so much! She makes me smile everytime I watch her dance!
I've read that if you don't give them the attention they need, they will pluck their feathers from depression & anxiety
Griffi has found joy. Thank you to the humans who made it happen.
Can the feathers grow back? And happyness stop her from plucking herself? Love to see these beautyfull birds dance,
Oh my stars she’s so adorable!
Thank you for saving her
She’s going to make you famous
I hate to think like that... Of the hundred or so animals I’ve been through, I only sought a forever home for them. Not fame. Luckily Griffy seems to have a GOOD forever home.
Griffi is the coolest gal on the planet. Love her 🤩🙏
Kind of owner to explain . dancing Queen safe now..God Bless
What's up lil homie
She's a little beauty.😄
Having a friend might help, Cockatoo's are social birds, like most parrots and subspecies.
Most feather pulling is anxiety brought on by loneliness, a single Cockatoo is living an unnatural existence.
The irony is that they can sometimes bully weaker members of the flock and pluck feathers from them...but that's a lot less often than anxiety pulling, she may not necessarily have been cruelly treated, just caged singly, like a lot of people do....snaps their little minds
Sweet Precious Baby
People don’t realize birds live a long time and really bond with owners. They love and feel sadness deeply. So sad to think people may have mistreated this babe. Thank you for helping her.
The heck is a l9 g time
@@georginaK21 Sorry, fixed it.
@@MyTNMtnHome Oh, that's funny. I was actually thinking that it was some new lingo the kids were using and I was beginning to feel old. I'm only 28.
My Aunt had a bird that lived to the age of 63. Yep. 63.
@@JustWasted3HoursHere that's amazing! Heck, I hope I live that long. Lol
I don’t even wanna imagine the trauma griffi went through to pluck herself like this. People who abuse animals have a special place in hell.
They don't even have to go through "much" abuse to do this. They are extremely sensitive animals and can react like this from simply not getting enough attention. Attention and interaction and stimulation are extremely important for these animals, it's not just enough to feed them and keep them safe, and a lot of people don't realize this (as is obvious from birds with plucking damage such as Griffi)
@@Rasbiff agreed...my sister's kitty started licking and grooming till her fur was gone after she was left home alone for a few days...our pets need us. Trauma is not always a big violent act.
She is supposed to be a wild bird. She is native to Australia and it is illegal to own her as she is a protected species. So somebody smuggled her to America for illegal sale.
She should be returned to Australia to be cared for by local wildlife experts. They can introduce her to her own kind and feed her using local produce that she would normally eat in the wild.
@@horsewhisperer20394 I think this species of corella is endemic to parts of Indonesia, not Australia
The damage is already done. She’s 15-22 years old but she seems to enjoy humans. Its possible that putting her back in the wild at this point would be further trauma. She has a family and they bandage her regularly most likely. She’s so fragile. ❤️. The damage is already done. God bless you people for being a new family.
She looks like a baby bird wearing a stormtrooper helmet. I LOVE IT!!! She is amazing
Yea she does !
I was just about to say this, lolol.
As someone who works with exotics, thank you for having the compassion to adopt this poor baby. Cockatoos are one of the misunderstood birds and we honestly treat them so horribly. I'm so glad griffi found you guys and will never have to worry about being rehomed or abused, wish more bird owners were like you guys!
I found your comment very interesting and informative, but I have a couple of questions. You mentioned that these birds are misunderstood, and I am curious to know what and how they are misunderstood? And of course why do people treat them horribly? I’ve never owned a bird, so I really don’t know much about them, but after discovering this special girl……unfortunately a little too late, as I understand she is now passed, but since seeing her, I am completely fascinated. She is also the cutest….was.

@@sk8ercaligirl 🙌
If that bird could tell you she would not be saying she wants to dance for your amusement love!!!!!!!
Thank you for looking after this special bird. This trauma made me think of wild Aussie cockatoos. They have all their feathers intact because they haven't been at the mercy of irresponsible pet owners. Thank you for loving this bird and showing humans that even a bird with hardly any feathers is deserving of love, safety and care. 💗🌈🌻
God bless you for taking care of this beautiful creature
The tragedy of Aussie birds is they are hunted and killed because they are called pests by farmers.
@@bird4birdhotmail This is not the norm by any means, but I'm sure it does happen from time to time.
Of course it is! WHO would ever question it?
Darling Griffi. It really hurts to think that she has been traumatised in the past and that she over preens herself in reaction to that. Thank you so much for giving her a better life, which she truly deserves.
She is such a character, impossible to not fall head over heels for her immediately. Thanks again, folks.

@@sallywhite7678 it was intended as humor, I love the little critter
Even without feathers Griffi is very beautiful bird ❤️
That's very sad that she was traumatized, and over-preens as a consequence. But I guess is shows that these birds actually have some intelligence, and emotions. I hope one day her psychological condition heals.
Something told me right away she was a rescue bird. It's obvious she's now in a place she feels safe and loved.
OK so just so you know, I'm officially emotionally invested in this bird.
I know! Me too!
Right?! I was thinking .. she's so beautiful and charismatic..a few missing feathers only adds to her charm 🐥

Yep! 💞

So cool.

It doesn't matter what she looks like, she's happy and loved along with some banging dance moves, I reckon she's absolutely gorgeous, I love her ❤️
People are not judging. Its natural to ask because its obvious she is skin not feathers
There have been a lot of ugly things said. For instance we have been accused of plucking the feathers to make her dance....🙄
@@griffithedancingcockatoo god will give you tonnes of love my dear. Thank you for rescuing this beautiful bird. All the love to you.
Fee Baker...you clearly don't know very much about these birds....what she looks like tells us a lot about her health and welfare..... she's BALD because of over plucking which indicates stress and sometimes abuse....I'm not saying these people are abusing her but if and that's a big if, they are forcing her to dance then need to stop.....if she's dancing because she wants to, then hopefully she will start to feel secure enough with these people that rescued her to stop plucking her feathers out.....
@ragnhild thingstad .....I know and have known many birds that are quite happy living alone with their human family....If they are loved and treated as they should be they don't need another bird partner......well, this breed of bird that is...Lovebirds do have to be in pairs, but this is not a Lovebird, she
is a Cockatoo....
So glad she has a forever home with such nice people. Bless Griffi and her parents.
She's so precious. She seems so tiny without her feathers, but her personality is humongous!
yes!
Yes
She's beautiful...even though she might have had it rough at some point, she now chooses to dance and that's a testament to the love she's receiving!
Dance Griffi, dance!♥️
I'm so happy she found her way to such loving, capable hands.
👍💯💖🦜💖
Yes amazing! ❤️❤️❤️
Warms my soul
She's went through hell and still dancing and loving life. May we all learn to be like this little bird.
@Honey Thunder Just stop he is right. You are digging yourself a bigger grave.
Griffi actually will yell until we put it on. We typically will play reggae or some other mellow music during the day.
I’m relieved this bird got rescued and went to a good home. ❤️❤️❤️
Poor little angel! I thought she was a baby. No living creature deserves to be so neglected .
I'm sorry I didn't make myself clearer.
THAT COMMENT WAS DIIRECTED AT WHOMEVER OWNED THIS ADORABLE BIRD PRIOR TO NOW (WHEN SHE FEELS LIKE DANCING). SOMEONE, BEFORE HER CURRENT HUMAN PARENTS, NEGLECTED THE LITTLE DANCER. RIGHT? WHOMEVER NEGLECTED HER SHOULD BE TREATED THE SAME WAY THEY TREATED A HELPLESS LITTLE BIRD!
They saved her. She is very happy trust me. Trust her owners. She is not being abused in any way. She just loves music and she loves to dance. No one is forcing her to do anything. Can’t you just chill and sit back and enjoy her dancing moves like the rest of us are doing PLEASE !!
What a little show girl. Her dance moves and personality prove she's happy and hopefully recovering from the ill treatment in her past. Go Griffi....🎵the stage is yours.🎶
@@okpunky I think Candy Kay was just talking about abusive home that she was rescued from, not about her current place that she is in and obviously loved
They do make litttle sweaters for birds,seen them on chickens so cute
I don't think the previous owner intentionally neglected her. Perhaps they were busy with work and birds kill themselves if they aren't happy. That's the way they are. It's sad to see but we don't know the whole story.
I've fell in love with this bird and her moves! Absolutely precious!! 💚💚💚👁👃👁
So happy this channel is blowing up. Im not a huge bird person but my God this bird has stolen my heart... thank you for doing what you do for her.
I’m glad you are not a Huge Bird Person... that sounds terrifying
... well I thought it was funny 😂☮️💜
@@jennyjay7816 lol! Thanks for the laugh!
If it wasnt for her appearance, one would never knows she been through a traumatic life. She is the happiest little bird and it shows, not a care in the world. Griffi is my virtual support pet. Just a little of her sweetness goes a very long way. Thanks for sharing her with the world.
Everytime she lifts her wing I feel like she's saying: "Ayyyyeee 💃💃 that beat!!"
Suzy had plucked herself bald before we rescued her and she's almost completely grown in. Fresh coconut really helped her anxiety. So glad our vet suggested it.
I never had a parrot, but I had chickens that sometimes got plucked by their sisters. I had one that had her whole back plucked clean bald. I took about a tablespoon of coconut oil and added about 5 drops of tea tree oil. I smeared that simple ointment over the bald spot and within a week all her feathers had started to grow back in. I think the tea tree smells and tastes funny so it repels the offending plucker as well as the two oils are very nourishing and restorative to the skin. I pray you will try it on Griffy. She looked like she was shivering, poor thing.
@@deborahchristmas8752 I've been using tea tree oil for decades but damn it burns as hell 😂
@@kha0s616 yeah, that's why I mix it with the coconut oil and just a few drops of the tea tree. It's really potent stuff!
Poor baby!! Such a sweetie! Keep healing. Luv the dancing
May the Almighty Creator bless you and Griffy all the more for your great love and kindness.
She doesn’t care what she looks like and neither do I. She’s adorable.
This could be a sign of the bird being ill. So you should care about what your animal looks like.
She needs to dance to That rocking Robin even she's not a robin
Oh she’s totally adorable, yet feather’s help regulate their temperature, so all that bare birdie skin could be an issue depending on the climate indoors and out.
@@Tranquility32 I think they live in Florida.
@@noname-yt7uf This isn’t my bird. This is a traumatized bird who plucked out her feathers. They appear to be growing back in and she’s a happy bird now. So I’ll reiterate, the bird doesn’t care what she looks like and neither do I. She’s adorable.
Despite her terrible past,that bird just emanates joy and good energy, I wish I had a bird like Griffi.
I have alopecia from a lot of traumatic experiences in my life and childhood, I know it’s definitely not the same but my heart goes out to this little dancing lady.

There’s a special place in my heart for people who adopt birds who pluck their own feathers. They’re such sensitive and smart creatures; not everyone can provide the type of environment and stimulation these guys need, so to those who can and do, I say, you are wonderful for what you do. ☺️
She seems oblivious and happy in her skin as if to say, "Yeah, I went through a tough time. Yeah, there's residual, but I'm dance ANY WAY!!!" Though a birdie, Griffi = inspirational. ❤️ THANKS FOR SHARING!!!❤️
My mother is 70 years old, she is a bit depressed these days with everything that is going on and so am I, she lives with me and most of the days I don’t have the energy to cheer her up. She asks me/my dad to show her a Griffi video every now and then to cheer her up. Griffi is such a blessing.
Sounds like your Mother needs a bird herself 👍🏻

Unfortunately the same type of people that abuse animals are the same type who abuse their own children.. sad !

Not really the blackest soul, see what we do to eachother, and thats knowing we're sentient, feeling beings...

@@mmc1086 Stop acting like a dime store intellectual and go outside.
Hopefully the longer she's actually happy she will stop all the plucking and picking. She's adorable. Could tell right away she's a rescue a bird. One that happy probably never would have started plucking.
I had a rescued African Grey. She had no feathers except her head. I could only get her to a certain level of feather growth. Once that behavior is ingrained it never fully goes away. You just have ebbs and flows.

@@griffithedancingcockatoo I hope Griffi can someday get a male Cockatoo friend that she can fall in love with and heal. I've heard that Cockatoos and other various parrot species have a tendency to let their feathers grow back to normal when in love.

I have rescued birds & want to thank you for what you are doing for this gorgeous bird. All the birds I've rescued (13) only one is still alive and he has severe PTSD. The other birds are waiting for me at the Rainbow Bridge. The veterinarian recommended I give him green tea with CBD in it & it has helped him a lot not to have nightmares, screaming fits, and to stop plucking. I know it is not for every birdie but it might help.
OMG! I'm sending peace LOVE and light to u and your poor sweet little bird...
I didn't know they are so traumatised 😲🥺🥺🙏God be with them to give them the best life now 🙌

Griffi is an Australian Tanimbar Corella (aka Goffin's Cockatoo.)
They're protected here (not allowed to keep them as pets), and they fly together in big flocks, all calling at the same time. It's deafening!
I hope Griffi continues to thrive in your care ❤
Wow, that really sounds wonderful. Thanks for sharing.

She's a happy soul. It's sad she was abused. She has a good life now. ❤️
It's so incredibly sad too see what pet birds have to go through. Naked cockatoos has almost become a normal thing now...
Thank you for caring for this beautiful girl, her voice is the cutest 🧡 please never let her be sad or stressed again.
Lack of attention or being around smoke not, losing her caretaker being yelled at there are many reasons for her to start plucking. I hope she finds her happy place.
Griffi should be giving dance lessons to all the other birds... she waits to feel the music, if that isn’t intelligent idk what is❤️
Hell, she’s a better dancer than me!
I love when she throws her wings out and does that waaaaah!
She's perfectly imperfect 🥰
Father, Jesus said that you care about the birds, and He told us to look at them to see that You care for us. I ask You, in Jesus' Name, to heal Griffi's trauma because you care about her, and You care about those who take care of her, and You care about all of her fans. Make her as beautiful on the outside as the beautiful happy bird she is inside. For Jesus' sake, Amen.
I suppose the owners did everything they could to heal her totally. But I am still puzzling, especially about this bleeding.
And could a bird friend help, maybe?
I know by myself sometimes I get those restless swingin moods when I am lonely, just to cheer myself up
Jeeeez!!!!
@@joannariemvis3984 they have a vet just for Griffi that specializes in birds. This vet is the first one to see that “Griffin” needed to be renamed as she’s a girl.

It's amazing that this bird can remember all these songs and sing and dance with more flava then most people 😲
that's not out of the ordinary at all, birds are incredibly intelligent
Its amazing the dummies fail to see this in all creatures...too busy thinking WE are the smart ones. There are migratory birds (Veeries) which travel over oceans to return to the exact same tree they left 9 months earlier. Creatures who predict Hurricanes months before and are fair more accurate than humans with their eyes in the heavens can. The dummies in all this are WE.
@@johndough23 I agree with you. Animals are wonderful. Humans just need to become extinct, IMO, so the animals and nature get their planet back.
Thank you for doing what you do. Plucked parrots have a super special place in my heart; all seven of my birds are rescues, and three of them are heavy pluckers/mutilators.
Feather picking is difficult to diagnose, whether allergy or other but this bird has people who are angels and give her the best of care. Whatever the cause it does not slow this wonderful bird down. Keep dancing love.
isn’t feather picking just feather picking? i know there are underlying reasons for why they pick their feathers which finding out those reasons can be difficult, but feather picking is pretty much just they pick their feathers, right?
@@fjp9
If it did this in the wild, it would die. Not be able to regulate body temperature or fly.
This is not normal for a bird to do this. I have seen it here on UA-cam with other rescue birds.
@@Aurora9990 sigh. i know that, and you’re missing my point. my point is that it isn’t that difficult to diagnose feather picking since feather picking is feather picking, and in most cases the feather picking is quite evident. now finding the reasons for feather picking could be more difficult as it can be due to mental or emotional issues/trauma and/or physical health concerns.
She is adorable! Griffi didn't want you to film her "other side", she wanted you to keep on her "good side!" Lol! New sub here!
Lol, nice one...all your sides are good.
I’m so glad you made this video. Cause Griffi’s OG subs were out in force defending her to people who can’t take 30 seconds to read and educate themselves about Griffi and birds like her.
I was thinking Griffi was a baby
@@1981pjt I originally did, too ☺️ I kinda think that’s what makes her even more special. I mean, if she had all her feathers and danced, it’d be adorable. But the fact, for me anyway, that she looks like a little baby jamming to songs you’d never expect is perfect ❤️
@Wreck and Carey you’ve just proven my point 🤦🏼♀️
It could have happened for a number of reasons so that is why people asked and didn't assume, just like you are assuming we don't know or haven't cared to try to find out why in some form or fashion. Just calm down. We all enjoy this precious baby girl and care about her. Her new owners are obviously loving her.
@@litl_kim but the point is, is that some people are trying to educate themselves, based on the visual. This video gives little important info, in the description section or verbally in the actual video. All many people see is a bird with no feathers, who is bleeding slightly. The visual looks scary. I think what WreckandCarey, as well as myself, are trying to say is...try not to be so hard on people who are concerned for her, since most are going on the little info that this video provides. Rifling through other videos to gather more knowledge would take more than 30 seconds.
In your future videos you should link this video in your description so people can be directed there.
Hi Griffi! I, too, had a traumatic life, and my body isn't ideally aesthically pleasing to today's standards of beauty either. But you do bring me hope! I just want to accept myself as I am so maybe others may see my inner beauty as well. Thank you 🥰
I wish you all the best from România! 🌹
when I read this, I see your inner beauty shining out of every single word.
Best wishes from Thailand.
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
You're still perfect. And you are loved. 🤗💙✝️🙏
Thank you guys! You're all amazing 🥰🥰
I'm an animal lover, and this was heart-breaking to see, I feel so much pain for her. I'm so glad she now has a loving home, and hopefully with time she will decrease her feather-plucking. Thank you for sharing!
I feel a twinge of sorrow for what he must have gone through, but then when I see him dancing, all sadness disappears.
It's easy to wallow in yesterday's disappointments. We can all learn from griff and dance yesterday's troubles away!!!
I love how happy she is despite her trauma.
She is amazing... It breaks my heart to hear she has had a rough life... She brings so much joy to so many people... God bless you for taking her in. Thank you for always sharing these wonderful videos. She brings some good into this world which we all need.
I agree 😊
She is a special little girl. Love those dance moves.
We just found your channel and have fallen in love with Griffi... Keep on dancin princess!! God bless you !!! 💜💕💜
She's beautiful, and I'm so happy she has finally found a loving family to take care of her ♥️🐦♥️
She's a warrior and so much courage and goodwill. We need her inspiration in today's world. Much love and respect to this beautiful princess.
I dont know what happened to this bird before, but she sure seems like a happy bird now! It amazes me how on beat she is with her dancing, no matter what music is playing.
Thanks for sharing her with us, Cheers from Canada : )
I have some kind of a phobia related to birds, but this little beauty caught my heart. I am scared of birds, but i can't stand seem them suffering. It breaks my heart anytime I hear about a traumatized animal. We humans can be real monsters.
True. She's a real jewel though.
She is SO cute! Love how she bounces to the music! She's a real sweetie! I'm so grateful she has a home where her human parents understand her! 💗💖
