Rescuer gets rook of love

-

A DISABLED rook is obsessed by the animal lover who adopted him – and jealous of her hubby.

Helen Motteram’s bird Russell Crow sleeps in her room and pecks both her and Tristan if they show each other affection.

The pet behaviouri­st, 35, said “needy” Crow also steals her credit cards and jewellery, and knocks pictures off walls at home in Cheltenham, Glos.

She said: “Rooks form very strong bonds. He sees me as one of his own.”
