Birds are VERY sensitive to certain fumes that originate in the kitchen. Browning on non-stick cookware and just burning things in general - keep that lovely creature away from the kitchen

The fumes from non-stick cookware, and even some appliances like toaster ovens or hair dryers which have non-stick coatings, are toxic to birds. They don't have to be overheated or burning in order to emit these fumes. Anywhere in the house would be dangerous. The bird can be in the living room, just use stainless steel cookware and check all appliances for non-stick or teflon coatings. Birds are also very sensitive to other fumes, and burning candles can be deadly as well.

Be carefull coz if he goes out of his cage and goes into the kitchen he might hurt himself with all the dangerous objects, stoves, etc...

great answers from both, let me add teflon and other non stick are more than just toxic, they kill very quickly. i keep an air purifier next to my birds which does wonders for us all.
