    My African Grey was definitely traumatized. He (understandably) developed some separation anxiety. From his perspective, he was alone for 14 hours, in the dark (because the power was out), then there was a big scary noise in the middle of the night and strangers kidnapped him.

    Marty’s emotionally unaffected. I took both birds out in their carriers to a pet-friendly shop the other day (trying to teach them that carriers don’t always mean they’re going somewhere bad) and Marty said “Hi Marty” to everything.
