Very interesting... Teflon toxicity...

How many people use non-stick cookware? I know I do on a daily basis. This is a little freaky...

Don't know why you would want to keep birds in the kitchen though?

Very good post.........a lot of people don't realize such a small thing can hurt an animal. I worried about it when I had my birds out flying in the house, they would immediately go to the kitchen. The best window is there and they would sit on the curtain rod or the top of the cupboards.

I saw the topic on 48 Hours, Primetime Live, 20/20 or 60 Minutes this week, and quite honestly was not surprised. The fumes have also been linked to 2 KNOWN birth-defects.
