the perils of inter-species love

Well, at least it’s a gilded cage from Tiffany’s.

I love that movie….

You made yer Bed; You better fly in-it.

Hint…. this is Polly instead of Holly.

I’m sure everyone’s jokes are cute, but will someone please just tell me what this cartoon is about?

Breakfast at Tiffany’s quote.

And a pet bird feels most safe in her cage (wild birds in their nest). As a bird-person, I can identify with that.

I used to have a free-range parakeet, would fly around the house (usually perched on the curtains) when not in his cage. Of course at night he would be in his cage or when he was eating. At Christmas time, he would never go near the tree, even if it wasn’t lit (or even decorated yet). Probably didn’t know what to make of it!

I’m making a peep about the red hair.

Thanks, folks, for the clue-in. The movie is charming, but I strongly recommend AGAINST reading the original story. It is a smarmy thing that should not be allowed to soil the memory of sweet Audrey.
