R.I.P Sally.... you sweet bird.. - Page 1

Well I came home for having dinner at my Dads last night to find my cockatiel (Sally) dead at the bottom of her cage.. she was 18 years old or maybe a year older. She was a rescue my mom and I got about 12-13 years ago.. Her mate died a year ago this past October.. he was 29 years old. Everytime I would come home Sally would go thru her greeting ritual with me... she would open her wings up and act all tough and chirp and chirp. So I would go over and say HI and then she would hiss at me.. Now there is this erry SILENCE in the livingroom.  She was my last cockatiel, I have had tiels since I was 6 years old and I will be 34 in a couple months.

So I have lost 2 pets this week... what else is next??

R.I.P Sally, you sweet sassy thing..

jyl,

I'm so sorry to hear of your losses. 

With much sympathy,

Brandi

That must be tough to lose two pets at the same time........my sincere sympathies. 

Hugs,
Sara

I am sorry. Having had birds myself, I know how their little chatter and silly stunts can liven up a home. You are having a rough time. Hang in there. I lost two seniors myself within a few months. One cat at 23 and an old rescue dog at 16. It takes a while to get over the emptiness.

Tough week, yes, so sorry for your losses, (too.) The silence is the worst. Hang in there Jyl.
