Talking Turkey

Easter is a turkey with a purpose,she is an ESA (emotional support animal) and has traveled extensively with her owner by car,boat and plane. The young widow adopted Easter as a companion when her friends found her (Easter) standing in the middle of the road in Corvallis,Oregon. They have been together constantly from then on. Easter allows the woman to hold her and grieve and also keeps her in contact with people as she is a conversation starter. They share meals,attend music events and hang out at home with their cats,often indulging in manicures and massages. I think it is wonderful that so much comfort can be found with these ESA animals and find it extremely disturbing to think that people who do not need this comfort endanger the service by trying to pass off their badly behaved pets as the real thing.
Jodie Smalley says the cute bird offers her "emotional support"
