As much as you love the sound of your new birdie, you probably don’t want to hear it at sunrise. If your feathered friend’s morning song interrupts your sleep, you may want to buy a birdcage cover. Although not an absolute necessity, covers have some definite advantages.
First of all, a bird cage cover blocks fresh air, keeping your bird warmer in the winter. It also blocks some sounds and can help your bird rest more easily. Perhaps most importantly, the bird cage cover keeps light out, coaxing your bird to sleep until it’s ready to wake up. This can help you, and your bird, get some rest.
Although any material could work in theory, it is best to buy a cover that is made for bird cages. Otherwise, you risk your bird getting tangled in the material. You also need a cover that is washable.
Bird cage covers are available at most pet supply stores. They can also be ordered online. If you prefer, you can make your own bird cage cover. This will allow you to choose a fabric that matches your home. If you go this route, be sure to choose a material that is washable and won’t entangle your bird.
If you choose to use a bird cage cover, try to use it at around the same times every day. Like most people, birds need a routine to feel safe, happy, and secure.
