00:00The bath only takes him a few seconds, and then he just waits for me.
00:10He grooms me, takes my hair, and he just plays with it.
00:18I'm not allowed to be in there without him.
00:22One day he just jumped into the bath with me.
00:25It just became an obsession.
00:27It was definitely his big moment.
00:32I'm just going to waddle around where you're actually going to have a bath, because I want
00:42to know if you're wasting my time.
00:43If he doesn't want to get in, he still has to be in the bathroom.
00:51I've had Yoshi for about three years now.
00:54He was given to me by a friend who needed some respite.
00:58He was very scared.
01:00His wings were really badly chopped.
01:02For Yoshi to fly, it was going to take some time.
01:05I'm going to run a bath, okay?
01:10Let's see how long it takes you.
01:13Bath time!
01:16Yoshi's like a glue stick.
01:23He's just on me constantly.
01:28I work from home.
01:31At some point during my shift, Yoshi has managed to wedge himself somewhere.
01:37If I'm washing up, Yoshi is on my shoulder.
01:41Definitely never lonely.
01:44I'll be back in two seconds.
01:46Wait there!
01:47Oh my god.
01:48Yoshi!
01:49He's managed to wedge himself somewhere.
01:52If I am washing up, it is Yoshi is on my shoulder.
01:57Definitely never lonely.
01:58I'll be back in two seconds, you wait there, alright?
02:04We call him my green shadow.
02:10I had no idea that a quaker parrot purred like a cat.
02:14I was googling whatever I could find, saw that it meant that they were content and had
02:19been happy.
02:22Quaker parrots can live around 30 years.
02:25I am very nearly 30 years old.
02:29I just quietly live my own life and all of a sudden I was just given this green winged
02:36best friend.
02:43If I could go back and change anything, I wouldn't.
02:46I'd do it exactly the same.
