WEST BERKSHIRE, ENGLAND – ‘Rocco’ the foul-mouthed African grey parrot was banished from the National Animal Welfare Trust sanctuary for swearing too much but has a new audience when he learned how to use Amazon’s Alexa and went on a digital shopping spree while his owner was away, according to The Sunday Times.

Rocco has become such an expert at conversing with Amazon’s smart speaker system he now orders up music and treats.

Rocco, who was taken in by National Animal Welfare Trust sanctuary worker Marion Wischnewski from Blewbury, Oxfordshire, was kicked out of the sanctuary due to his profane language.

Rocco’s benefactor didn’t anticipate her shopping bills going up after Rocco figured out how to use Alexa to order a variety of things including fruit, veg, ice cream, light bulbs and a kite.
