I had a pet cockatiel growing up in high school. When I moved in with my husband while we were dating, we had cats as well. Didn't have any issues since the cats never really went in the room where the bird was, and he was never out of the cage unless I closed the door of the room he was in. I wouldn't say my bird smelled unless the cage didn't get cleaned in a timely fashion, but he was certainly messy. Any time I was able to let him out and roam free I would. Or I'd take his cage outside and let him enjoy the fresh air. He was fairly easy to take care of. I'd get another one, but depending on which breed you are looking at, you may be looking at a very long commitment. Parrots have long lives, sometimes out living their owners. That's something to keep in mind!
