Meet Petunia – The Rescued Duck Who Greets Her Owner In The Cutest Way Possible

ADVERTISEMENT

When you think about ducks that live in fully furnished houses… Only Donald Duck comes to mind. However, there are more ducks in this world, and, fortunately, some of them meet kind-hearted strangers that become their rescuers and friends. One of these fortunate ducks is called Petunia, who happily lives at her rescuer, Chantel Grant’s, home. But Petunia is aware of how lucky she is and she really makes sure that her owner knows how grateful she is. Each time Chantel Grant, her human, comes back home from work, she returns to see the face of eternal gratitude and appreciation.

Petunia, the rescued duck, is bursting with joy each time her owner returns home

She is so cute! Birds can be so affectionate too if you show them love!

I wish the story included what she was rescued from. Or maybe I don't?

From Reddit: " level 1 chantillylace9 3.0k points · 5 months ago We were watching this Muscovy duck that we have fed and known for 5 years, lay eggs in our bushes and one day, I came home from work and saw one single egg, alone, hatching without her family. I looked everywhere for her family and was unable to find them. I’ve rescued and reunited 3 other ducklings that got stuck in neighborhood pools (ignore the random girl jumping over your fence to rescue a baby duck from your pool FYI!) so I was sad I couldn’t find her family. She was still wet and just cracking open the shell. I took her inside and warned her up and I called the Wildlife Care Center, but they said she’s an invasive species (not native) and they would have to euthanize her. So that is how we got a pet indoor duck! She has her own room and “princess” castle and a very fitting “beware of guard duck” sign on her door! Lol. She loves my two macaws and bites their tails and harasses them but they somehow still like her
