Cockatiel destroys his owner's laptop in a bid for attention

This hilarious video shows a jealous pet cockatiel destroying his owner's laptop in a bid to get attention. Skasham Parahar, 22, claims that his bird Chevy doesn't like it when he spends the day working rather than playing with him. Research assistant Skasham, of Delhi, India, said: "He watches me spend time on my laptop."He attacks it because my fingers are on the keys and I'm not giving him head scratches.

Who doesn't want all the attention?" Jealous Chevy repeatedly pecks the keys off Skasham's laptop in a fit of rage leaving only the 'delete' and 'escape' keys intact.Chevy's annoyance at Skasham's work schedule seems more understandable when given the context of their relationship.Big-hearted Skasham rescued Chevy from the brink of death at a bird market. He added: "I was passing by a bird market and this fella was bleeding from his wings and sitting in the corner with his eyes closed.

He didn't have enough feathers and was small, very small."I bought him, took him to a vet, and got his wings fixed.

He was three-weeks-old.

Now he's healthy and 13-months-old." The two have formed an unusually close bond, cuddling and sometimes even sleeping together. Skasham is understandably upset about his mangled laptop, but the incident has taught him a valuable lesson about the importance of making time for your friends - whatever species they are.
