In general if you’re away from home a lot, I think a bird might be a good choice.  But if you’re around a lot and you’re actively home more than they are, I think they might be a little lonely.

Lovebirds will pair-bond, which means they’re devoted to their partner.  It’s possible to keep a pair together, and they make an excellent pair as long as they don’t fight too much.

Are lovebirds good pets?
user
My understanding is that they’re pretty high maintenance pets.
assistant
How so?
user
They’re extremely social creatures and they need quite a lot of companionship.  They may not be the best companion if you’re busy a lot and it’s important for you to have an undisturbed space.  If you’re busy a lot and they’re very attached to you, they may need to be taken to a bird care center regularly for care.

So do I need to get more than one?
