Pets have a way of reminding us to slow down and enjoy the little moments in life with all the silly things they do. Some of them\u2014the extroverted performers of the bunch\u2014can also tell when it’s showtime, whether for family, friends, or strangers on the street.<\/p>\n
Kizaru, the Cockatoo<\/a>,<\/strong> is a natural-born superstar who was definitely meant for big things. This funny bird<\/a>‘s favorite activity is riding around town with his parents, so he can entertain the masses with his sparkling personality.<\/p>\n The video shared by @caitlin_and_friends shows Kizaru living it up during a quick ride with Mom and Dad. The Cockatoo<\/a>, who loves being the center of attention, piques the interest of passing strangers who engage with him. Though this sweetheart takes a minute to warm up, he’s quick to whistle for them and eventually gives them what they came for: conversation!<\/p>\n Related: Cockatoo ‘Fights for His Right To Party’ While Jamming Out to the Beastie Boys<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Like most other vocal and energetic Parrots<\/strong><\/a>, Kizaru thrives on performing for anyone willing to give him the space to be his true self. He dances, chats up a storm, and happily shows his talents whenever possible.<\/p>\n One of his latest posts shows the funny bird giving his 93-year-old grandma a special choreographed routine<\/a> he created himself (and it’s the most precious thing). Look at his little toes bouncing up and down as he headbangs to the beat of his own drum.<\/p>\n As PetMD<\/em> explains, there are more than 20 Cockatoo species<\/a>, and they’re all generally known for being highly social. In the wild, they forage in flocks of 100 birds<\/a> or more, and in a domestic setting, these behaviors contribute to why they love attention and being surrounded by anyone who’ll give it to them.<\/p>\n Not all Cockatoos<\/a> “talk,” but they’re considered loud companions who squawk, screech, or whistle. Like Kizaru, these Parrots are beloved for their ability to form such strong bonds with their humans. Because of this, they do need a lot of attention and mental and physical stimulation to keep them from destructive behaviors like feather plucking.<\/p>\n With a lifespan of 60 to 70 years and big personalities<\/a>, these birds are a huge commitment. But for the right pet parent, they’ll spend all those years bringing the laughs just like Kizaru does each and every day.<\/p>\n \ud83d\udc36<\/a>SIGN UP to get \u201cpawsitivity\u201d delivered right to your inbox with inspiring & entertaining stories about our furry & feathered friends<\/strong><\/a>\ud83d\udc3e\ud83d\udc3e<\/a><\/p>\n This story was originally published by Parade Pets<\/a> on Feb 23, 2026, where it first appeared in the Pet News<\/a> section.
