Cooperative Care for Low Stress Veterinary Procedures with Cassie Malina. Recorded April 12, 2025

As we increase our awareness of the link between nutrition, and physical and mental wellness, we also grow our awareness of how stress and illness are linked. Detrimental side effects can also be caused by the added stress of necessary medical procedures when birds are already immunocompromised. When we prioritize training our birds to participate in their own care voluntarily and cooperatively, we not only greatly reduce the stress associated with veterinary procedures, but we also maximize their physical and mental wellness. At the same time, this builds trust in our relationships with our animals. Join Cassie as she shares some of the many behaviors you can train your birds to voluntarily participate in to increase their wellbeing, and achieve your behavior and relationship goals.
