Hello! My name is Stumpy, and I’m a handsome 20-year-old Senegal parrot with a special foot missing a toe. Despite my name, I'm an excellent flyer and quite the looker!

I'm on the lookout for a bachelor pad to call my own. Sorry, ladies, but I thrive best in a home with a man. I'm the epitome of a best friend—loyal, dependable, and always there for you. I’m a very good boy and will step up nicely onto a hand, perch, or shoulder. Honestly, all I really want in life is a male friend’s shoulder to sit on while I whistle sweet tunes.

I'd be happiest in a child-free, male-only home, as my behavior can be unpredictable with people I’m unsure about, including women and children. I'm okay being left alone for a couple of hours a day, but I’m a social bird, so please don’t leave me for too long. Ideally, you’d be retired or work from home.

I’ve lived with other birds before and don’t mind them as long as they have their own cages. However, I’m really only interested in human company. I’ve also lived with a dog before, and that didn’t scare me.

Any love you give me, I’ll return in double measures. So, how about it? Do you have the time to devote to me and be my best buddy?
