FUNNY!!! I think we all must be creatures of habit. I can only imagine what it is like at your house! Is David walking already? Weight bearing? I still can't manage stairs. I do hope he doesn't need more surgery!
Probably psychic. Kitties sure seem to be, so why not Miss Gilbert. Oh, my! Bones, tendons, ligaments! It is better to get them repaired before insurance changes with retirement however, I agree. I tore a ligament in my wrist in July while doing therapy. I have waited because of not having any more time in that benefit period.
I tried to post yesterday but couldn't. My best to David with his surgery. My guess is Miss Gillie Girl will want him to stay home forever after this layover.
She is so very intelligent I'm sure she knew where you were.

Thank you.
Cataract extraction with lens implant is a real blessing when well done. I know from personal experience.
Miss Gilbert is such a sweetheart! I'm sure you disagree, especially when she takes out a piece of flesh (or calls you "MA.")
I'm very glad you are safe! Best wishes for speedy recovery from the surgery.
Precious has a very long memory, also. She calls frequently for one of my grand-daughters that she seldom sees.
My daughter put Plexiglas behind Precious' cage. It works well. Also Method Bathroom Cleaner helps remove dried food but it might remove poor quality paint. I have used vinegar and water as well.

I love, love, love your baby! Thank you for sharing this growing time with us. (S)he is very precocious. Of course having such dedicated parronts has a lot to do with it.
While my deceased husband was growing up in Brazil 70 plus years ago they had a rehomed Amazon that spoke German. He must have been wild caught. The stories told were of a very loving gentle bird with the man of the family but he could become very aggressive with other individuals. I think every bird has his/her own personality and it is up to us to respect that and still be kind, gentle, loving in our relationships.
I don't know how I missed this! As I read it I was sure it had been written for Dee and Miss Gilli-girl, until the very end. I too, am very misty eyed. I think of all the birds and dogs and cats and primates and elephants and EVERY species. And I miss PRECIOUS!!!
