Mylo: A short video

He can be a little grump, sometimes, but who knows what this poor little fella has been through for the past few years. We know what has happened over the past 6 - 7 months, and that includes being separated from his long term partner JJ who is currently totally plucked and still in the hands of UKPR.

I wonder whether the RSPCA believe their is a welfare issue now concerning JJ the Macaw which they themselves placed into the care of Vikky (UKPR)?

If Mylo doesn't like something he will tell you, but he never means any malice or harm, its about mutual respect between an animal and human. He is a lovely bird with his own character, who just wants to get on with his life, preferably with his partner JJ, in a safe and stable environment which he is now living in.

These two birds have been through enough already, and the only one who is now unhappy is JJ, but she is still being used as a pawn in Vikky & Adele's game.

Look at all of the facts people and if the Police & RSPCA are still keeping abreast of developments, please take note about the state of JJ's welfare, and what, and who, has led her into her present condition.

Thinking out loud, I wonder whether anyone can be sued for sitting back and allowing this to happen to JJ, especially considering the RSPCA declined to investigate this case properly after they were made aware of it. I wonder who made that decision? That person is now the one who is now part culpable for JJ's present condition. The RSPCA are also the ones who placed these two birds into the hands of UKPR in the first place and we already know they tried selling Mylo for money without the relevant A10 certificate, which is illegal.

(As a side note: The RSPCA Officers who failed to check the story behind these two birds, failed to even pay a visit to both of the homes where these birds were staying, after being given all of the relevant information at the beginning which included police involvement, and paying for a vet's bill, are responsible for this blog post by Vikky (UKPR): Liar!!!!

If they had of done their jobs properly at the beginning and investigated these two ex-RSPCA rescue birds, there would have been at the very least, a home visit and statement taken from both parties just in case there was a welfare issue in question (which there was), and in case anything arose in the future like it now has.

They did neither, only telephoned to say this isnt an animal welfare issue which resulted in that blog post.


I wonder what they think now when looking at JJ?

Before: Happy

After: Plucked

Futher reading: Open letter to Head of the RSPCA

If there was ever a time for the authorities to act for the welfare of JJ, it is now, especially as everyone is watching their story unfold, and waiting for the right outcome for them both.

Does JJ as a bird not have rights to be protected from unscrupulous humans?

We will have to wait and see, one thing is for certain, Mylo will be protected for as long and as hard as need be, now he is happy and content in a safe, loving environment.

Adele should do the right thing and do what she was meant to at the beginning of this which is to send JJ to be with Mylo along with the cage that was donated for them both. Failing that, I would assume the authorities will wrap this case up for the sake of these birds and hold each person to account for their actions.

Mylo & JJ's present situation

Update below: Adele & Flakey boy

Photos of Mylo:
Mylo the Military

As Mylo’s case is now in the hands of the police, our intention was to say no more with regard to this situation with him and JJ, other than report on how Mylo was doing when the time was right.

Amongst other things, UKPR tried obtaining money for a bird that is categorised as an endangered species, which is highly illegal within Great Britain. Not only that, the bird was handed into their care by the RSPCA.

Thankfully for Mylo, he has the type of protection over him that he does. He is a protected species, that means people cannot abuse him without facing the full force of the law, which is why there are DEFRA laws governing his life.

Mylo arrived at Caron’s after being with Adele 6 months. Adele and Jamie (UKPR driver) had no clue as to how to handle both Mylo & JJ which can be proven, and she allowed this bonded pair who she had just spent 6 months with, to be split up en route.

Mylo arrived in a sorry state, in a small dog cage, stinking of cigarette smoke, awfully stressed after the trauma of being split from JJ, after fighting with her whilst Jamie and Adele attempted to put both birds in one small crate, and with no cage as a permanent home even after being told he would travel with at least one of Adele’s older single cages.

This was all brought out into the open on the UKPR forum, with Caron subsequently being banned and silenced from telling what had gone on, just like everyone before her who disagreed with Vikky on bird welfare.

This blog was then set up to put this side of the story across, aided by some other people concerned about bird welfare and rights, with everything written for people to read, along with facts supporting the claims.

One of the last major concerns on this blog was about Cherry, the Eclectus. How Jamie had talked of pairing her up, and then her sudden death. As this happened we were made aware of another UKPR Eclectus called Coco (a male Eclectus), that was said to have gone to Alan, Jamie’s close associate. Alan is a known parrot breeder. and after the Cherry saga, Alan now has plastered over Parrot Link that he now has a baby Eclectus. Shortly afterwards, on the same thread Alan posts that he also has African grey chicks plus other unspecified “birds on eggs”

Does this mean Alan is a professional breeder?

If Alan is a professional breeder, how many birds have gone into his care, via UKPR and how many are now in breeding situations?

We know he has a Triton Cockatoo, and a Bare eyed Cockatoo, both worth £1000 each, that came via UKPR, and we know he breeds Umbrella Cockatoos.

Might not be illegal?

Should the RSPCA be giving rescue birds to these people? One of them being Mylo an Appendix I CITES listed Military Macaw who they have tried selling for money, who is now in a loving home, mixing with other birds, just missing his partner JJ who is still in UKPR hands.

Adele along with her UKPR friends, still think, that Mylo is heading back into their criminal hands.

Legislation needs to be introduced to protect rescue birds from the likes of these people, and have the industry governed so that every bird is assured protection. Otherwise people have no laws to defend the rights of these living creatures that have ended up in their care.

Thankfully for Mylo he has those rights, so we will defend those rights, because we know we are in the right over his life.

JJ, Mylo’s partner should have arrived at Caron’s along with a Pallace cage for the both of them. Now JJ is still at Adele’s, totally plucked and on medication with the prospect of having chemical hormones pumped into her if that doesn’t work!

All this rather than send her to be with Mylo, where she was originally destined.

What changed the situation and brought all of this about?

Adele on her own admission, was rehoming these two birds because she was ill, she was scared of Mylo, and they were both living in her spare bedroom (all proven with facts).

Not much of an existence for this pair of wonderful creatures.

She then decided to re-home the pair, found what she stated was the best place for them, only for her to be now sitting with a severely plucked Macaw, who is part of a bonded pair, believing she is also going to take back into her care Mylo, and everything that has happened in between, that is listed on this blog.

Stupid people forget that facts, and believe the lies.

Here are a few of them.

Adele Video: She had Mylo & JJ for 6 months, and only now JJ is coming on leaps and bounds, watch the UKPR video on the forum for yourself: Video

Image: Leaps and bounds

Barbz: How on earth can anyone say JJ looks happy?

Image: happy

Bella: Mylo & JJ had been with Adele for 6 months and nothing, now JJ is plucked, on medication, and Bella says this. What planet is she on?

Image: What planet?

Flakey: The man who professes to be only concerned about bird welfare, is praising what has happened to this poor bird.

Image: Praise

Julie: You ask yourself is Adele is doing, or has done a great job?

Image: Great job

Adele: Last but not least, and the reason for this post.

Image: Coming home

………………………………..

Do you really think we are going to let Mylo go back into what he has just come out of?

UKPR are fighting for their property back, we are fighting to defend the rights of a sentient creature who has had his rights and welfare trampled underfoot by those charged with his care.

They broke the law over Mylo’s care not us!

All of the facts are on this blog for anyone to read.

Why would we send Mylo back into that?

Adele should send JJ to be with Mylo where she was originally destined, along with their Pallace cage, and stop playing Vikky's game for her.

Vikky and UKPR have caused this trauma for both birds and people, now they have the opportunity to do the right thing for both the birds.

Failing that, everyone is now waiting for the final outcome for these bonded birds, and if you were the authorities like the RSPCA, DEFRA and the Police; what would you do?

Look at Mylo’s partner JJ for yourself, and decide whether or not, based on the evidence, it is psychological abuse, pure cruelty… For their human motives.

Update:

This post along with this continuation update is in the interest of transparency regarding Mylo & JJ who were the No.1 reason for this blog being set up in the first place.

There is always two sides to a story, so if Adele and her fellow UKPR friends still want to carry on promoting their side of the story rather than allowing the relevant authorities to do their job, we will continue to point things out.

Adele phoned Caron the other day, just like she phoned her after this all blew up and stated that Vikky had lied about her wanting to foster the pair long term. Adele then went ahead and posted on the UKPR forum about this.

All the relevant information was discussed over the phone and no more was going to be said about this, that was until Adele stated: "thank you,just waiting now for when her little man comes back home to her and us"

At this point it was decided that we would have to once again put things into perspective for Adele, all of her UKPR friends, and all those other people following the story of these two birds.

Adele thinks that she is in the right over this situation and is banging her head against a brick wall here, and Flakey boy thinks we twist everything.

How ironic!!!

Everything written on this blog is supported with facts, so who are the ones twisting everything?

If they choose to carry on attempting to reclaim Mylo in any way shape or form, then we will continue pointing things out, and defending him from them.

That is just how the situation now is!

There should be laws in place governing these people, instead they are a law unto themselves.
