I need patterns for clothing for a naked cockatoo please, asap. I knit and sew. HELP! thanks Dawn?

Question

I need it to be completed in two weeks when Bibby Bird returns to vet for more treatment under sedation - vet will dress him in it while bird is under the anaesthetic. He has a disease which means he will never grow feathers, and will die of cold in winter.

Answer 1

Make your own pattern. I doubt you will find one. Take measurements and use cloth and tape to test the design.

I think it would be very hard to keep a sweater on a bird. Your best bet is to wrap your bird in a blanket when you transport it in the cold and while it is sedated. I have seen birds do quite well without body feathers. I am sure you know to keep it out of drafts.

I would also have an area in the cage that is sort of boxed in for the bird to go into and snuggle. There are many tents available but also easy to make. Make it just a little larger than the bird so it can go in and have the cloth sides snuggle against the birds sides to keep it warm. I forget the names of these tent things but you will see what I mean.

Contact your local wildlife group. They should have patterns for knitting jumpers for fairy penguins who have been in an oil spill.
