How Pirates and Parrots are alike:
* Buccaneers traveled the Caribbean, visiting exotic islands in search of treasure. Parrots inhabited these tropical climes and can be found today in idealic surroundings.
* The quintessential pirate is depicted as having a beaklike nose, piercing eyes and stubby legs-physical characteristics he would have shared with his feathered “mate.”
* National Geographic described the typical buccaneer as being decked out in flamboyant colors, proudly displaying his earrings, bracelets, and chains. Most parrots have gorgeous feather coloration and, similar to their pirate companions, are attracted to bright objects (both parties have been known to bite on a shiny object or two).
* A connection has been made between the loud, gravelly-sounding and colorfully “punctuated” speech of pirates and that of parrots.
* Pirates were used to unstable footing, could swing from high places, and knew that getting sprayed was just part of the “job” description. Parrots take swaying branches in stride, like elevated places, and love a good misting.
* Pirates were travelers by nature and were known to swoop in and take whatever they wanted. Parrots are able navigators and have been known to nab whatever captures their interest.

As with all our work, we will be happy to customize it for you for an additional fee if you contact Kittycat in world.
By the way, custom means we do different textures on the decanter or barrel, and perhaps on the cups/mugs/horns/glass inside plus edit the chatter the cup does. We are more than happy, at no additional fee, to change out any drink in any of the decanters for any others. We have no way of knowing what you like to drink, and do not consider taking a barrel we have made up and shifting the drinks in it to something else as custom. That is just good customer service.
