Butzi1

Thank you for all the support. I will always hold Butzi in my heart. I did get to hold him at the end. I sang his favorite song to him. A soft quiet version of "old McButzi had a farm". His version wasn't so quiet and included many animal sounds. I will miss him forever. One final note on Butzi, my husband came home with a new baby grey named Milo. Do you think I will learn to love him just as much as Butzi? He has a complete different personality. Buzti was happy, loud, and very independent. Milo is quiet and huggy. Butzi was my first grey.

I am new to this web site. I love african greys. I think they are amazing. I recently lost my 4 year old grey to a very unusual blood clot. Very sudden and unexpected. I am devestated. He was truly a member of our family not a pet. Butzi1

{Feel-bad-0002006A} I recently lost my 4 year old grey to a very unusual internal blood clot. Nothing could have changed the outcome even though he was rushed to our avian vet. The grief is overwhelming. I didn't think he would die before me. I was always very careful with his health. No chemical sprays, no teflon, no plants or new birds. I have received many calls from people who know of someone wanting to give their grey away. I can't imagine giveing up my grey. It doesn't seem fair. I loved so much and I lost him. Other people consider theirs as a burden. The grief is overwhelmine.
