Somewhere in Yorkshire, there lurks a proverbially nauseous parrot. Ziggy, an eight-year-old African Grey, had provided Chris Taylor with years of companionship until the fateful day when he opened his beak to mimic his owner's girlfriend and squawked out one word: Gary.
Ziggy's obsession with his latest impression grew and he began uttering "Hi Gary!" every time Suzy Collins' mobile phone rang. Chris's suspicions deepened after Ziggy started to make long kissing noises whenever he heard the name Gary on television or the radio.
Things between Chris and Suzy finally came to a head the night Ziggy decided to blurt out: "I love you, Gary" in her voice.
When Chris confronted Suzy about his pet's obsession, she admitted to having had a four-month affair with Gary, a former colleague.
Unable to bear the verbal taunts of his faithful bird, the 30-year-old computer programmer gave Ziggy to a local parrot dealer and asked him to find him a new home.
