The 11-month-old “very cuddly” Rodney, is used to give support to people struggling with their mental health. He was found after a five-hour rescue mission, noted The Telegraph. “If you can get past being completely weirded out by a six-foot bird with a massive beak right in your face, he is very cuddly and likes strokes and is good for the soul,” said his owner, adding that “he hasn’t got much between his big ears”.
