Any pet parent knows that you can create a lifetime of fond memories with your pet kids. Some of the best moments happen when you least expect it, and an ordinary day can become the subject of a treasured story that you tell over and over again.
One bird dad has a new moment to talk about and a cute video to show friends and family. In this clip, Louie the Macaw wanted to play a game of Peek-a-Boo, and he has the funniest way of grabbing dad's attention while he's in another room.
It's game time for Louie! And who could say no to playing with this spirited Macaw? Since Louie seems to have started the game, this cannot be their first time playing Peek-a-Boo. This birdie must have thought that this instance was the perfect one to have a little fun with dad.
As shown in the video, dad is in the kitchen doing his own thing. Then he hears 'Peek-a-Boo' from the excited parrot, and dad pops out and returns the call, playing along. They repeat this back and forth, and if you ask me, Louie is definitely winning.What makes this interaction so adorable is that this Macaw has made this game his own. While many of us may have played Peek-a-Boo the traditional way by covering our eyes, this little guy dramatically leans back and forth when calling out, 'Peek-a-Boo.' It's almost as if he doesn't want to get caught saying it. Maybe that's the rule for their version.
Either way, seeing the exchange between them is what keeps viewers hitting replay. The TikTok post caption joked about Louie saying, 'It's the leaning for me,' and I have to agree because this little birdie is seriously into this game.
Watching these two play together is so fun to see. But it's no surprise because this parrot is pretty active and loves to play with his parents. Just take a look at this video of Louie going on a little pretend shopping spree with mom.
Louie having the mini shopping cart and items is beyond adorable. Something tells me that if this birdie believes in anything, it's playtime with the parents.
And there's no doubt that Louie the Macaw knows how to have a good time, and I'm glad his parents decided to share this one to brighten up our day.
