Watch the Chipmunks, Alvin, Theodore and Simon sing a song for Christmas …

Below are the lyrics to “Alvin and the Chipmunks Christmas Hoola Hoop Song”

Lyrics
(all right you Chipmunks! Ready to sing your song?
-I’ll say we are!
-Yeah!
-Let’s sing it now!
Okay, Simon?
-Okay!
Okay, Theodore?
-Okay!
Okay, Alvin? Alvin? ALVIN!
-OKAY!!!)

Christmas, Christmas time is near
Time for toys and time for cheer
We’ve been good, but we can’t last
Hurry Christmas, hurry fast
Want a plane that loops the loop
Me, I want a hula hoop
We can hardly stand the wait
Please Christmas, don’t be late.

Okay fellas get ready
That was very good, Simon.
-Naturally.
Very good Theodore.
-Ahhh.
Ah, Alvin, you were a little flat, watch it.
Ah, Alvin. Alvin. ALVIN!
-OKAY.

Want a plane that loops the loop
I still want a hula hoop
We can hardly stand the wait
Please Christmas, don’t be late.
We can hardly stand the wait
Please Christmas, don’t be late.

Very good, boys
-Lets sing it again! Yeah, lets sing it again!
No, That’s enough, lets not overdo it
-What do you mean overdo it?
-We want to sing it again!
Now wait a minute, boys
-Why can’t we sing it again?
-[chipmunk chatter]
Alvin, cut that out..Theodore, just a minute.
Simon will you cut that out? Boys…

My step mom got a pet bird recently. I can’t remember what type of bird it was, perhaps a budgie. Unfortunately, she forgot to lock the bird cage last week and the tiny bird flew away.

Caring for small pet birds can be quiet easy as you only need to:

1.) Provide them with bird feed and fresh water every day.
2.) Clean the bird cages every 3 days or so.
3.) Make sure your birds are healthy and happy.

Most cages for small birds are not more than 50 cm high and wide all around. Some can be even as small as 10cm, but it is better to provide plenty of space for your little bird to exercise and hop around.

Some small birds are relatively quiet and can be put indoors to prevent cats, dogs and other animals from disturbing them. Of course, you should ventilate your home during the day as sometimes the smell of pet faeces and urine can be overwhelming if your house has poor ventilation.

If you keep your pet bird indoor, keep it away from noisy washing machines, dish washers, radios and TVs. Birds can become distressed due to excessive loud sounds and may become unhappy and fall ill. Keep your bird in a warm but dry place, with plenty of ventilation.

If you plan to keep your bird cage outside, do ensure that it is sheltered from rain, snow and wind and also bright sunlight. Keep your bird cage high and away from prying paws and hands. Make sure it is sheltered from the weather.

Whether you plan to keep your small pet bird indoor or outdoor, please remember to LOCK the cage after feeding your pet bird. It is quite heart-breaking to see a pet you love fly off.
