Ooh, do I see some sparks between Gotcha and Tootie? "I love you, hello." "I'm a wizard, you're a 10", those sound like parrot pick-up lines if you ask me!
+Quillaroonie indeed, and it's very common for the male Moluccan to kill the female during mating if the female cannot get away. I completely disagree with breeding parrots for profit though so there won't be any of that around here and only rescued/adopted parrots in my home 💗💙💜
Zetro Games Actually it's more of mimicking. They actually dont understand the weight/meaning behind the words so they arent learning the language/words they are mimicking. It's like when a baby or 3 years old say random words they heard. They dont know the meaning or how ro correctly phrase it they just mimic what they hear. (This is why birds that can mimic cant talk on their own. They are like voice recorders.)
"I want to try the buggy too" *eats the bug* "It needs mustard." Where did gocha get such situational awareness? I love how smart birds all. Wish I still had my budgie, she lived a good 12 years though
Kirmizi Bir He is actually speaking, what he says often corresponds to the current situation. Even Katie(Gotcha's owner) believes that he is actually speaking. And it's very obvious when he is speaking, an example of this is the video titled "It's a cockatoo tantrum" if you watch enough of his videos you realize that he at least knows some of what he's saying.
That OneGuy I'm not saying he never "speaks" (= mimic sounds, and basic association between certain sounds and certain conditions). I'm saying that anyone who thinks a bird has the intelligence to eat something, and make the association and have the verbal skills to say "it needs mustard", is missing a few marbles.
+Frankske no need to put it in quotation marks it is speaking. Speaking including human speech is nothing more than mimicking sounds and using them in the correct context to achieve a goal through communication. Thats what he obviously does here (sometimes) and what these birds also do in nature (with their own language of course). Yes the mustard thing was probably more random than anything else not sure if he even said "mustard" but even if he most likely didnt know what it ment.
I love it when Megan said there was a bug on her and Tootie immediately plucked it off her shirt! He was like:"No problem, let me get that for you". So funny!😁
How wonderful. It appears that Tootie is a bit shy so maybe having play dates with Gotcha will bring his personality out a little more. In anycase it looks like he's found a loving forever home which is the most important thing.
"It needs mustard"😄 I fell from my chair, I laughed so hard!!! He wants to try the buggy too 😄 The funniest and sweetest birdie on earth ❤ And so smart... I gotchu bird ❤
I've watched that one several times ! One of my favorite Gotcha videos ! That and the one called ' A conversation with Gotcha " where he calls Katie Momma. Love that one as well. He's so precious !
Yes in his q,&a he stated that would be a security risk lucky he has such a loving daddy that spends so much time with him. Max is such a happy bird. Thanks for letting me know
I really loved seeing the distanced interaction between the 2 of them. From what I see on the video they seemed pretty chill and not flipping out. That's awesome that you're letting Gotcha meet possible new friends. It's sweet seeing both birds reactions. I think Gotcha trusts the heck outta you and you respect his bird boundaries as a result it looks like it's slowly but surely paying off. I don't know you, but you seem very sweet and caring and nurturing to Gotcha and your other fur babies and your son too. I don't own a bird of any kind but I really love all animals and LOVE watching your vids. I appreciate you sharing you and your families experiences with the your rescued animals and so on. Great Job girl!
This is beautiful - the beginning of a lifetime relationship with lots of love to help Tootie realize that the past really is gone and it's safe to love and trust someone. Drat, something in my eye. Seems to happen every time I read about rescues and imagine the dawning realization that they can relax and let go of the fear of ill treatment and/or abandonment, and finally be able to love safely. Here's to a long and happy life together, Megan and Tootie!
I love your subtitles! This time, I could hear the words. "It needs mustard"? Where does he come up with this stuff? I love Gotcha. Thank you for sharing him with all of us.
Aww, this is so sweet. Gotcha is so confidant, chatting away. I love his "growley" voice and the subtitles are so funny. Tootie seems a little more shy but is so beautiful. Great that he has his loving forever home. Hope to see them together again soon :-) :-)
Awwww... that is sweet. Gotcha has a new friend. I think he enjoyed having that company. You can tell Tootie loves his forever Momma Megan too. Bless them both. So sweet
You can see how much Tootie and Megan love each other. Tootie seems so comfortable with her and sure likes kisses and cuddles. I'm so glad Tootie is with someone who will be his forever mom.
Thanks to both of you wonderful Moms and your feathered babies. Gotcha has had my heart for such a long while now. The photos were just so beautiful and the ones of them sleeping really took my heart. Thank you Katie for another over the top. just plain feel good video.
I REALLY want a cockatoo, but my parents won’t let me have a bird. I can see why, I don’t know if I would have enough time for it. But, because of Gotcha, I have started researching them for when I’m older and I get one. Off track, my moms friend had a cockatoo that would go up to the mirror and go “Hey sexy” and whistle 😂

Moluccans are from Indonesia.
*psssssst!* (gay birds)
Psssssssst ! I Think your gay !
"It needs mustard." LMAO!
It needs some milk
miniaturesun That's Gotta be Fake Right?
Un known no. he speaks
Un known Birds can learn to talk. Only if you spend hours talking to them. some birds can't talk so if they don't learn to talk that bird can't talk

I laughed when Gotcha said, "I'm a wizard."

When gotcha said it needs mustard it was sooooooo funny.
"It needs mustard"! Hahaha 😂😂😂

😂😂😂
‘I want to try the buggy too’...😂😂😂! Gotta love Gotcha and his friends 😘😘😘
hmm bugs with mustard. I'll have to try that, Gotcha. Thank you for the recipe.
Lmao! It cracked me up when he said i'm a wizard. That was so random! 😂😆
Gotcha is so polite, handing out compliments like that! 😂 "You're a 10." Also, that's pretty cool that he's a wizard. 😆
Gotcha is extremely smart he can literally hold a conversation like a human
Keep the videos coming, I've become a Gotcha fan, and thanks for doing the translations!
"Hey it's the bully drop!"
"Control the boy now!"
That's funny cuz those are a couple of my favorite lines from Gotcha's vocab. Hahahaha!
Haha
I've watched that one several times ! One of my favorite Gotcha videos ! That and the one called ' A conversation with Gotcha " where he calls Katie Momma. Love that one as well. He's so precious !
"It needs mustard?" 😳🤣🤣🤣🤣
It needs mustard !!!!! Oh my Go I'm in tears !!!!!! lol
total bird lover, thank goodness for people like you and megan keep up the good work!
gotcha and max, make it happen :D
+Kilcoyne Yes, that would be so cute to see. Max is so lovable and adorable like Gotcha, and he could maybe use the company now that Angel has passed.
Yes in his q,&a he stated that would be a security risk lucky he has such a loving daddy that spends so much time with him. Max is such a happy bird. Thanks for letting me know
What I saw from a video by him, max is aggressive towards other birds.
Max hates other birds unfortunately, whenever he sees them outside he screams
"I gotcha!"
"Hiiiii"
I gotcha!"
"Hiiiii"

Gotcha laughs. Best thing ever.
I was expecting Gotcha to say 'I gotchu'
Nice to meet you Tootie and Megan. Tootie looks so comfortable with you.
I truly hope Tootie has found his forever home. He is so shy while looking at the confident Gotcha. Thanks for this wonderful post, Katie!
Oml right as he said 'bless you' I sneezed!!!!!😂
The fact that he actually understands English language is both astonishing and hilarious 😁
I love your subtitles! This time, I could hear the words. "It needs mustard"? Where does he come up with this stuff? I love Gotcha. Thank you for sharing him with all of us.
Lol, "I'm a wizard." Yes you are!
That explains Gotcha's vast vocabulary he is a wizard!
So adorable.
When it says "I love you" it's clearly audible and doesn't need captions. And it's SO CUTE!!!!! ❤️
I cried watching this. They are just so sweet.
"Lets eat the bug" 😂😂😂😂😂
Love gotcha he never fails to make me smile & laugh. Gotcha seemed impressed with his twin. Love cockatoos & their many personalities. 😍
Aww, this is so sweet. Gotcha is so confidant, chatting away. I love his "growley" voice and the subtitles are so funny. Tootie seems a little more shy but is so beautiful. Great that he has his loving forever home. Hope to see them together again soon :-) :-)
lolololololol thanks for the subtitles. Gotcha brightened my day as he always does.
Awwww... that is sweet. Gotcha has a new friend. I think he enjoyed having that company. You can tell Tootie loves his forever Momma Megan too. Bless them both. So sweet

It's great Gotcha made a Cockatoo friend! Once the get use to each other you can make play dates!
Thanks to both of you wonderful Moms and your feathered babies. Gotcha has had my heart for such a long while now. The photos were just so beautiful and the ones of them sleeping really took my heart. Thank you Katie for another over the top. just plain feel good video.
It needs mustard! Lmao
"I'm a wizard, you're a 10."
Either reincarnation is real or this bird is literally a million year old wizard who picked a cockatoo body
Please have another meeting-I loved it!
So precious!
oh now this is adorable!
Mustard and bug actually sounds like a good combo.
I wanna try that buggy, too. It needs mustard. Lol
I REALLY want a cockatoo, but my parents won’t let me have a bird. I can see why, I don’t know if I would have enough time for it. But, because of Gotcha, I have started researching them for when I’m older and I get one. Off track, my moms friend had a cockatoo that would go up to the mirror and go “Hey sexy” and whistle 😂
The subtitles are hilarious!!
They're hilarious!
I love you, Mr. Boo!
He understands words!
Gotcha is very sweet to his new time paradox-created friend.
Finally someone that accepts he's a wizard.
Your a wizard gatcha a wizard!!!!!
