I know it takes a lot of time and patience, gentleness, slow moving, quiet talking. But even my four yr old gt,grand-daughter has gained the trust of Precious by doing this. I believe you can succeed with your new friend. I think a bird desirves to be able to see out the window.
I, too, know about the love. There is a look in Precious' eyes and we swear she is smiling. Cuddle time is undescrible for both of us. She slides down her stand and just can't wait when I pick up the towel to put on my lap. She's there in an instant and makes her loving sounds with half closed eyes.
No canned, no boxed. Don't have to be a southern cook to know that, but maybe it helps! (Must confess; had a southern grandmother, never used a recipe. My California g-mother was a mighty good cook also.) I've used cheddar, romano, mozzarella, gouda, feta (all sheep or goat) at the same time. It's best when baked, all golden brown and crispy on the edges. Mmmmmmm
Deb, I must be an old fool because I just can't stop crying! The pain of losing our beloved companions no matteer what species just keeps coming to me. You are all my family and I feel it all. Yes, I've had to make the same decision. Hugs and love.
I've seen it ocasionally in the market, but not often. Yes, he definately had tooooo much!!!:woohoo: I'm wondering if my dad's family brought some from LA when returning from a visit. I know it was really good!
