Polly want a potty?
Parrot potty training is a thing – and Japanese bird owners have apparently taken it to the next level with a potty that's just for parrots. It looks kind of like an ashtray with a bird-shaped perch attached.

The photos are so cute and funny, it's almost possible to forget we're still talking about bird poop. Almost. It's not like that thing flushes, so at the end of the process, you're just left with ... a tiny bowl full of bird shit.
Then again, your bird's gonna defecate anyway – whether you train them or not, whether you buy them a quirky little gadget or not – and you're gonna have to clean it up either way. Might as well be into an Instagram-friendly receptacle, right?
