Cuddles is like my daughter. She is the only family I live with. She is also my emotional support companion. I love her with all my heart.
~ Cuddles's family

After a week of grey and gloomy weather, the sight of this beautiful bird is like a burst of sunshine! This is Cuddles, a 27-year-old Eclectus parrot who brings light into her mom's life every day. The human-animal bond is not limited to relationships between mammals, and we are grateful to our veterinary partners at Exotic Pet Clinic of Santa Cruz for working with us to provide assistance to families of exotic pets. Cuddles was struggling with an ear infection, but with your help, she's being treated and will soon be feeling as cheerful as she looks!
