This is appalling and degrading to those of us who have beloved birds. What is PayPal thinking?

They are members of our families, not replaceable items! You should be ashamed.

Losing a bird is heartbreaking, just like if you lost a dog or cat. If you ever do get a pet again they can never replace the old one.

Birds can't just be replaced like the advert suggests, birds are family too.

This is a horrible to see. Even though it's "just a commercial" it reflects a real life situation which has caused devastation to pet owners and the safety and survival of the poor bird. Please remove.
