[header] How to choose a cage for a cockatoo [title] Make sure you have a good place to put a cage. [step] Cockatoos are social birds that need lots of interaction with members of the family. Make a space for your cockatoo's cage in a well-protected area of a room where your family spends a lot of time. 
If possible, choose a warm spot with lots of natural light that is away from drafts and high traffic areas. You could, for example, place the cage in a well-lit corner of the living room.
