Japanese Waxwing
In China, keeping the Japanese Waxwing in a cage is not unusual—many have kept or are keeping one. However, no one has reportedly bred them successfully at home, so those seen in the pet market are usually caught directly from the wild. Due to indiscriminate catching and habitat degradation, their numbers are dwindling, and they are now listed as a Near Threatened species.
Rainbow Lorikeet
The Rainbow Lorikeet (Trichoglossus haematodus) is a brightly colored lory found in Australia, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, and the Solomon Islands. Lively and intelligent, it is a popular pet but needs a specialized nectar-based diet and a clean, spacious environment.
Dusk Parrot
The Dusk Parrot (Pionus fuscus) inhabits forests, coastal lowlands, and farmland across northern South America. Once rare in aviculture with very high mortality among wild imports, it remains uncommon in captivity, and deforestation and habitat loss have greatly reduced wild populations.
Jardine Parrot
The Jardine Parrot (Poicephalus gulielmi) currently has three subspecies. Its body is almost entirely green and is the second-largest parrot species after the Cape Parrot. Its distribution is scattered and not concentrated, mainly across central Africa and parts of West Africa.

How to Keep and Train a Golden (Syrian) Hamster
A golden hamster lives only about two and a half years, so train early and repeat often—best between one and four months, after a week to settle in. Bond with snacks, teach its two-syllable name at feeding time, then lure it onto your hand. For care: newborns are blind and deaf for a week, eat mostly millet and grains as omnivores, and should get only small amounts of seeds, vegetables, and other treats beyond their staple, with clean water always available.
How to Handle a Bad-Tempered Cat
A cat's bad temper may be innate or caused by poor handling or stress. Build trust through a safe environment, a stable routine, and positive training that redirects its attention, and the behavior will improve.
Why Cat Cafe Cats Love Strangers but Yours Hiss at You
Cat-cafe cats are usually hand-picked gentle pedigrees (Ragdoll, British/S American Shorthair, Scottish Fold) that pass strict screening, early socialization (brushing, belly touches, being held), desensitization to noise, and environment design with hideouts and treat rewards. Your cat can get tamer too — with patience, socialization, and never forcing contact.
