What is claimed is: 1. A birdcage accessory for holding a food item, the birdcage accessory comprising: a body shaped and dimensioned for receiving and storing the food item in an interior of the body, the body and the interior having a common longitudinal axis; and a perch coupled to the body, the perch being displaceable along the longitudinal axis relative body for providing a bird with an unhindered access to the interior of the body, the perch having being substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis; wherein the body comprises opposite elongated flanks, the perch slidable engaging the flanks to slide between a plurality of desired positions for the bird to reach for the food item, each of the desired positions corresponding to a varying length of the food item as the food item is being consumed by the bird; wherein the body comprises a food fragments trap on one of opposite body ends, the trap extending from a bottom of the body beyond the flanks and configured to collect food debris; wherein the trap comprises a substantially dome-shaped cross-section and a width between 1.5-3 inches, a depth between 1-3 inches and radius between 0.75-1.5 inches, the width being defined between the flanks of the body, the depth being defined between the bottom of the body and an outer edge of the trap. 2. The birdcage accessory of claim 1, wherein at least one of the flanks comprises a track, an engaging end of the perch frictionally engaging the respective track for sliding the perch and the body relative to one another to the desired position. 3. The birdcage accessory of claim 2, wherein the perch comprises a substantially U-shaped cross-section for supporting the bird, the engaging end of the perch comprising a slotted side configured to slidably receive the flank. 4. The birdcage accessory of claim 1, wherein the body comprises a peripheral wall extending angularly from the bottom of the body and including the flanks, and a top opposite the trap and bridging the opposite flanks. 5. The birdcage accessory of claim 1, wherein the body comprises a bottom and a peripheral wall extending angularly outwards from the body and including opposite longitudinal flanks. 6. The birdcage accessory of claim 5 further comprising tracks extending along and coupled to the respective flanks, opposite ends of the perch being configured to detachably couple to respective flanks. 7. The birdcage accessory of claim 6, herein the tracks each have a generally L-shaped cross-section including a base wall and a sidewall, the base wall extending from body and the sidewall being spaced from the body and extending transversely to the base wall. 8. A birdcage accessory for holding a food item, the birdcage accessory comprising: a body shaped and dimensioned for receiving and storing the food item; and a perch coupled to the body, the perch and the body being displaceable relative to one another for providing a bird with an unhindered access to an interior of the body; wherein the body comprises opposite elongated flanks, the perch slidably engaging the flanks to slide between a plurality of desired positions for the bird to reach for the food item, each of the desired positions corresponding to a varying length of the food item as the food item is being consumed by the bird; wherein at least one of the flanks comprises a track, an engaging end of the perch frictionally engaging the respective track for sliding the perch and the body relative to one another to the desired position; wherein the perch comprises a substantially U-shaped cross-section for supporting the bird, the engaging end of the perch comprising a slotted side configured to slidably receive the flank; and wherein the slotted side comprises a substantially U-shaped cross-sectional area, the engaging end of the perch comprising a flange provided with a stopper engaging an end stud provided on the track and configured to prevent complete disengagement between the perch and the track but allow displacement of the perch along the track. 9. The birdcage accessory of claim 8, wherein the flank comprises an L-shaped cross-section; the L-shaped cross-section comprising a base wall and a side wall, the base wall extending outwards from the body and a side wall extending transversely to the base wall, the track being provided on the side wall and the end stud being mounted to an end portion of the base wall. 10. The birdcage accessory of claim 8, wherein the track comprises a plurality of teeth frictionally engageable in the slotted side of the perch to prevent voluntary displacement between the perch and the body. 11. A birdcage accessory for holding a food item, the birdcage accessory comprising: a body shaped and dimensioned for receiving and storing the food item; a perch coupled to the body, the perch and the body being displaceable relative to one another for providing a bird with an unhindered access to an interior of the body; a bone holder, the bone holder comprising opposite holder ends, a first of the holder ends being mounted to a respective one of the tracks, a second of the holder ends being flexible and provided with a plurality of spaced apart projections selectively engaging the other track so as to provide adjustment of a length of the bone holder according to various shapes and dimensions of the food item; tracks extending along and coupled to the respective flanks, opposite ends of the perch being configured to detachably couple to respective flanks; wherein the body comprises a bottom and a peripheral wall extending angularly outwards from the body and including opposite longitudinal flanks. 12. The birdcage accessory of claim 11, wherein the second of the holder ends extends angularly to a web portion that extends between the first and second of the holder ends, the projections being spaced apart at a distance slightly greater than a width of the other track, the other track being received between adjacent teeth upon tightening the web of the bone holder against the food item. 13. The birdcage accessory of claim 12, wherein the one holder end of the bone holder being rotatably mounted to the one track to provide an operator with an access to the interior of the body upon swinging away from the body in response to a torque by the operator. 14. The birdcage accessory of claim 11, wherein a web of the bone holder has a toothed inner surface engaging the food item so as to prevent inadvertent displacement of the food item.
