"Hi, we're Chiquita and Turq, the office parakeets. We live in an antique cage everyone calls the Taj Mahal, because it looks like a palace with turrets. We don't have a picture of Chiquita yet, but she's yellow all over like a banana.

"We were in terrible trouble before we came to live here. A bunch of big black birds found Chiquita outside one day and pecked her little yellow head until they made her bleed. She was on the ground crying when a nice lady who worked at a pet store ran out and saved her. The next day, I somehow ended up in the middle of a big road where cars were zooming past on every side. I was too scared to fly, and I almost got squished! The same nice lady who saved Chiquita ran out and saved me, too. Then she took both of us over to Deb's office. The next thing we knew, we were living in the Taj Mahal!"

"We love being here, but we don't like the tarantula. She's always looking at us!"
