Actually not "pet" like cat😂 not even nursing 😁 my dad bought a pair of pigeons from the his friend when I was 5 yo and 2 years after that ...pigeons became our stock if proteins, the egg the meat.. we have more than 50 and named the first pigeon as kakek or grandpa. My dad built pigeons nest 4 meters from the ground to avoid predators such as cat and dog.. but sometimes I saw eagle too. Twice a day the pigeons will gathered up in the terrace to wait for its food and that's the best time to catch them or set a trap using fishing net. We name all the pigeons but we don't mind eating them too😊.
I still remember when neighbours came to our house to complaint about the bird's shit on their clothes or houses, and then we catch all the birds, selling some and make a pigeon meat party that week. Never ate any pigeon meat since that time.. 35 years ago.
