    African Grey
    David H.

    This place was amazing but what really made it more amazing were Debbie and Heather. I grew up on a horse farm and have also owned animals in the house since I was a child. For the past year I've been strongly considering buying an African Grey or a Cockatoo however am being very strategic and doing all of my homework before. Since I don't have much experience handling birds I decided to go to the Golden Cockatoo with my friend yesterday (who has experience owning birds) and I'm very happy I did. It was towards the end of the day when the staff was doing a lot of cleaning from a busy Saturday and hand feeding many of the baby birds. Debbie and Heather dropped everything they were doing (while still feeding the baby birds) to offer so much incredible information. The best part was they were so willing to let me handle any bird that was available for sale and that had the correct temperament for a novice bird person to get experience which of course made me fall in love with a 4 month old African Grey. You could tell they were extremely passionate about exotic birds as well as super knowledgeable. They were extremely helpful and truly made my experience what I was wanting and of course I've been thinking about this beautiful African Grey since I left. I would highly recommend the Golden Cockatoo as well as asking for Debbie or Heather. Extremely wonderful experience. Of course the gorgeous birds help but these ladies really made me feel at home and I left 100% feeling more comfortable and wanting one of these gorgeous birds in the very near future. Thank you Debbie and Heather. I'll definitely see you soon.

    Golden Cockatoo is a fantastic place if you love birds, like birds, or have an interest in learning more about birds as companions (and maybe buying one). They have a tremendous variety of different birds including macaws, greys, and cockatoos, among others. We bought a 4.5 month old female African Grey from this store. Debbie and her team TRULY CARE for these creatures' well being. These birds are properly fed and cared for, they are socialized and engaged, and the facilities and cages are clean. The bird was not cheap, but these sentient beings can live for 40-50 years (if properly cared for), and you get what you pay for. They Princess is happy, healthy, and well adjusted. A sincere THANK YOU to Debbie and the dedicated staff here.

    My princess and king! They love each other so much!

    I bought my princess (she is a queen of bavaria conure) in 2015 from Golden Cockatoo. I then bought my King (also a queen) in 2018 from them. It is now 2020, and I have been going to Golden Cockatoo for grooming, toys, and food since I got my little sunshines! I recently bought more cages, so they can enjoy the outdoors. Everyone there is very helpful and friendly! I probably bother Debbie too much with all my questions haha, but she is always there for my babies! Especially since my King has been a little upset lately, so debbie showed me this product that had chamomile in it and has helped him calm down a bit :) So thankful for everyone there !

    You took my bird to get it groom on Wednesday drove from Hollywood to Deerfield Beach you're not ask for better people it's a husband and wife that owns a shop everybody in the shop was so helpful. They have a new customer we will be taking silver back thank you for a great job

    Wonderful place to visit, I was greeted immediately and everyone was very helpful. Especially Samantha, she's very knowledgeable and patient with many questions that I had. Also the place is Very Clean. I was impressed and of course I'll be back again soon for my baby's boarding. Thank you everyone for your time

    Ruth and Debbie were amazing !!! They spent quality time talking to us and teaching us about the birds. The store is very very clean and the birds look well cared for. They were kissing the birds and very passionate about their jobs! I highly recommend this store !!

    Just going to jump right in! I freaking love this place. I stopped by a year ago and looked around and came back a few months ago and got an umbrella cockatoo. I still have to visit her at the store since she's still not ready to come home. So I'm there a couple days every week. Debbie showed me her and I fell in Love instantly. I know she's in good hands there and it's an awesome feeling. These people give the birds so much love and it shows. Ruth and Ian are my people of choice to ask a million questions and they always help me learn new things about bird parenting. All the birds there are such sweethearts!! Also another plus is their toys are priced very well. A lot of pet supply stores try to beat you in the head but they don't and they don't try to push you to buy things nor birds. I almost forgot to add they have a good points system when you shop with them. Staff is awesome and feels like family, whenever i go on vacation I can be confident in leaving my bird with them and she will be taken care of. Certainly would buy another baby from them.

    A happy, healthy Squonk hanging out with us in their visiting area a couple weeks before we took him home.

    I had been planning on getting a parrot for quite some time and Golden Cockatoo came highly recommended. My first visit there, I was able to meet some babies from a couple of breeds I had chosen and I decided to put down a deposit on a Caique. From that day until about a month later when we brought him home, I had nothing but positive experiences and I spent a LOT of time visiting with my new bird while he was being weaned off of formula. We dealt primarily with Debbie, but also had a lot of contact with Heather and Ian. Each of them was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and highly experienced. It also helps that they are all seasoned parrot owners and that they don't just work at a bird shop. Every single staff member besides them that I dealt with was also a pleasure to interact with and they all knew their stuff (and honestly, over the month of visits, I'm pretty sure I met every person that works there). Every time we visited, everyone was incredibly accommodating, providing me with a towel, treats, and toys so I could just focus on bonding with Squonk, my new Caique. Any questions I had were always answered cheerfully and thoroughly. Most importantly, on the day we brought him home, we stopped at a reputable local avian vet and he came back to us with a perfectly clean bill of health (the blood tests he ran took approximately one week, the DNA sex test took about two weeks). Additionally, Squonk was weaned effectively with no regression back to formula as well as coming to us with an adventurous appetite regarding new foods - I credit Golden Cockatoo for this because they provide a variety of fresh foods and such while they're weaning their birds. In the month that we've had him home, he's been an absolute joy and it's clear that his first months there were an overall positive, essentially giving us a head start on raising a well-behaved and well-socialized parrot. All in all, this was a great experience and Golden Cockatoo will be our primary shop for toys, food, and supplies going forward.

In rainy weather it drifts water all over you as you walk to the only front door on steps that are now wet people should know this as it's unsafe for potential customers. Under the new ownership from Canada, I find disrespect, I find Rudeness, I find selective customers taken care of by the new owner and another employee while I was personally ignored, & treated badly. This was not the first time and it is the last time!! The products are overpriced and I'm not paying that kind of money and have bad service. There's only one person who works there who is a decent nice employee and treats every customer fairly.. the rest are either clueless. Do not know the inventory or just a plain mean.!! Unfortunately this is my review for the month of February 2026 with their so-called 50!year Anniversary These people have not been here for 50 years. They only took over a year ago and I do not see the quality nor the caring that used to be!! By the way, this is not the same family owned Pet Store business anymore. This is new ownership by snotty people from Canada that don't care about their customers and I am one of the ones that has been mistreated by one of their employees who thinks it knows everything and is very rude, ignores customers like myself I am not the only one this employee treats badly. The individual goes by the name of Mz T for this review of mine.. I am not used to being Mistreated & it is unacceptable behavior! The following is a letter to the new owners from Canada:: Today!!! the last day of January 2026 Not One person said hello to me!! And there was only one customer & she had both one employee & the new self important owner helping & I was completely ignored! I wasn't even said hello to? So unfriendly so unkind I'm not impressed at all! The only person who was nice & greeted me was the dog Trainer Laurie who doesn't work for the Pet Store Fins Furs Feathers but greeted me with a smile which is more than I can say for anyone else in the store! She asked employee mz T who is only an expert at being mean, who has become incredibly even meaner with this new ownership from Canada because when the owner is ignoring customers, this employee feels it's OK to do so and more The name begins with a T, who was asked to come answer a question she didn't know the answer to & this employee refused! To answer , walking away around a corner oh so importantly I understand Miss T has treated other customers in similar fashion for no good reason . If anyone that worked for me mistreated my customers in this manner, they would not be working for me very long !! PLUS Unbelievably I think I overheard your new owner saying some thing nasty about me under his breath like "stupid idiot" ??? I will be making some positive changes which will not include this type of pomposity & Creepy, cruel behavior I didn't deserve. It was embarrassing & I'm not into it at all!!! Ever hear of Yelp!!!!? It's worldwide .... People should know what to expect!! BTW This isn't the way to be successful here In Boca Raton even though Boca has a reputation for a snotty attitude. Usually those businesses do not last very long! nor would they last anywhere! When people choose a store, they should be treated with kid gloves be called by their name and be served with respect, and this is true of any business. This does not happen here and I've put up with it for a year. This last weekend was the last straw.!! Many many many blessings on your path. Cherie

While they are not the largest of this type of store they like to emphasize their connection to the pets people love like family They carry food and supplies for dogs, cats, fish, birds, reptiles, and small mammals.

I have switched my dogs over to the refrigerated food like Fresh Pet. Unfortunately they only carry the frozen food and the rabbit section was quite small. I left empty handed although the store employees were happy to tell me where else I could shop to find what I need.

He responded "that just happens" and went into the office and slammed the door.
