You just never know. I only have one bird, but I know my cats are funny that way. One minute they will be cleaning each others' faces, the next they will be quibbling, hissing and scratching at each other. I don't speak cat, so I don't know what set them off. Are birds like that too I would assume? I know a lot of people who are...
Wow, I had no idea! I rehomed Timber from my daughter-in-law last summer. She had Timber for six months. She (and my son and granddaughter) are in and out of my house all the time. I have to say it never occurred to me that it might have an adverse affect on him. Just when you think you are starting to get a handle on things, you get another surprise. That said, if it bothers him he hides it well. It might help that he never really got close to any of them, which is one of the many reasons they decided they couldn't keep him. Makes me sad to think it might be bothering him though!
Second that. My TAG's cage is even closer to the kitchen stove. Stoves are an inherent danger that always have to be carefully watched. Since most of our birds are with us wherever we go, you have to always be vigilant about the stove regardless of the cage's location.
I have to say, I'd rather have a diagnosis of thyroid problems than congestive heart failure. I know what you mean on the bill though! Sorry for your ordeal
Ouch! What a shock to go in for something you think is minor and be put in the hospital. Will be praying for your speedy recovery and healing. God bless!
So sorry for your loss. Back in our younger days, when we lived in the country, we had dobermans. They were fantastic dogs and much loved. Their relatively short life-span was always painful though. We live in town now, and can't have a big dog. Bentley was blessed to share his life with you just as you were with him. I truly believe you will see him on the other side! God bless.
