Looking for Fruit Loop: New hope for parrot missing for almost a year
COCHRANE, Alta. — An Alberta family that has been looking for its beloved parrot since it flew the coop almost a year ago is hoping an unexpected tip could lead to the feathery fugitive’s whereabouts.
Fruit Loop flew out of an open door when company was visiting the Van Hoeve home in Cochrane west of Calgary last July.
Evelyn Van Hoeve says someone unexpectedly came in through a back door while the family’s parrots were out of their cage and Fruit Loop flew off.
She says the family looked for months for the Alexandrian parrot, but Fruit Loop couldn’t be found.
