Self-cleaning oven lethal to canaries by: Anonymous
Although I gave away my non-stick cookware when I received my first canary, I did not know that fumes from operating a self-cleaning oven were dangerous. Two years later, I used this function (very high heat -- no cleaning products) during the winter when the house was sealed, and both my beloved canary and companion Rosy Bourke parakeet died. I dearly wish this information had been more widely disseminated before my heartbreaking experience. Thank you for helping to educate canary lovers.
