Phoenix, a one year old cockatiel who suffers from stress and has been put on the antidepressant Prozac by a Cape Town vet in an effort to restore his health, poses on his perch January 22, 2002. [Veterinarian Dr Rina Cotton, who has used the treatment successfully on a number of animals, began administering small quantities of the drug to the bird after Phoenix began plucking out his feathers last year leaving his breast and wings bare. Signs are that the world's most prescribed anti-depressant is helping Phoenix plump up his plumage once more, as calm returns and the feathers are beginning to grow back.]
