Caterpillar's Story

Caterpillar is the kind of pigeon who acts like he’s known you forever, even if you just walked in. He doesn’t really do the whole “stranger” thing. In his mind, you’re just a friend he hasn’t properly greeted yet.<br/><br/>At the rescue, he’s always right in the middle of whatever’s going on. If someone’s cleaning, he’s there watching. If food’s coming out, he’s already excited. If you’re just standing nearby, he’ll make sure you notice him, with a few soft coos and a very intentional “hey, hi, yes, me” stance.<br/><br/>He’s not shy about wanting attention! He’ll casually make his way closer like it was your idea, start cooing like he has updates to share, and suddenly you’re in a one-sided conversation you didn’t realize you agreed to. He has excellent timing and zero boundaries in the most charming way possible.<br/><br/>Life with Caterpillar means having a very friendly little supervisor who needs to be involved in everything. He’ll check in on your tasks, your snacks, your general existence. You won’t always know what he’s saying, but you will know you’re being included, and honestly, he knows that’s enough!
