Reply #71: I'm so sorry about Tuky

:cry: People don't understand that many birds are
a lifetime commitment. People who don't know birds
don't understand how wonderful and cuddly and
freaking awesome they are.

My poor little Petey, a parakeet, died in my hands.
It took me a long time to get over that. People
were telling me, "It's just a parakeet!" Well, he
was king of the parakeets as far as I was concerned.
He was a rescue, as were all my birds, and all the
rescues were the sweetest, loving things on earth.

Tuky is with Lady Bird, Petey, Albert and Piper
flying high above the rainbow bridge.
