From the moment the first book about the well-known young wizard Harry Potter was published, owls have become popular pets. Poachers made a fortune by catching and selling birds in the market.
Instructions
Step 1
Undoubtedly, the owl looks very dignified, but what is hidden behind external importance? As it turned out, a real nightmare. These birds are literally not tamed. They can fly around the house, even learn to sit on their shoulders. But owls, as they were, will remain wild for life. Even an adult may not be able to cope with their predatory habits, and as a gift for a child, this is an absolutely terrible idea.
Step 2
As everyone knows, an owl is a nocturnal bird. She will not change her habits for the sake of a person and his whims. Contrary to popular belief, an owl cannot be placed in a small cage. We'll have to order an aviary, and best of all, let her fly freely around the house. Be sure that at night you will have to wake up not even from drunken companies under the windows, but to the symphony of furniture upholstery tearing under the claws and sharp beak and chilling owl singing. Owls also rarely get along with other pets, and if it is a small rodent, they will even announce a hunt for it.
Step 3
By the way, about the rodents. Owls don't eat apples and bananas. They are birds of prey that eat meat. Moreover, live meat. A headless victim who lies motionless in a bowl will not suit the owl for sure. The hunting instinct will never die in them. Therefore, they will only eat live rats, mice or chickens.
Step 4
As for the smell, it is no less terrible than owl habits. No amount of sprays and perfumes can interrupt him. Also, owls tend to hide perfectly the remnants of food that they cannot eat. Despite the fact that they look very formidable and are considered the keepers of ancient knowledge, the memory of birds is poorly developed. Therefore, they will soon forget about their trophy, and the owner will be reminded of it for a very long time by an extremely unpleasant smell emanating from an unknown place. Be sure that they will be able to hide everything, and they will find places in the apartment that you did not even know about.
Step 5
Perhaps these are just a few of the shortcomings that such majestic and proud birds are endowed with. That is why knowledgeable people do not even have a little owl at home. Its size is small, but there are just as many problems.
