Oh no! Prayers for Howardine's family. I know she will be missed here.

Great job! You accomplished the goal quickly there, I know from reading the forums that many aren't successful this fast. Happy New Year

Happy New Year to my Grey family! May you all have a prosperous and blessed New Year

What a scary experience. Prayers for you and Jayd. Take care of yourself Maggie. We tend to ignore that when we are focused on caring for a loved one.

Yes, a lesson indeed.

Yes and amen. Love you too Jayd!

Merry Christmas to you and your "flock!"

Yes, ask the vet. I wouldn't think he'd still be stressed 24 hours later, but I'm not an expert. The vet is. Good luck and God bless!

Great news!

I'm no expert on this but many years ago I worked for a school district. There is a lot of asbestos in the old buildings. The key was always whether the asbestos was "friable" (I think that was the term). If it was painted over or contained in a sealed product, it was considered safe as no particles were entering the air. If it wasn't completely covered or contained it was friable and could be air born. I'm not sure this helps, but thought I'd volunteer what I know. Another example... we have a very old boiler in our house which has an asbestos covering. The asbestos is covered by another cover. According to the heating people, it is no problem as is. If we ever need to remove it, that's another story.

So glad to hear from you and Jayd! Beautiful pictures of bonding and comfort. Prayers for you both!

Rescue Remedy is the one I've heard the most about also. I haven't used it so can't add anything!

Great pictures! Wish I could kiss Timber like that but he's take my lips off...

LOL she looking distressed alright. That's one reason I don't belong to most of the facebook groups. I left drama in junior high where it belongs and refuse to participate now.

Happy hatchday Corky! Is dad letting you date yet?

Wow, if looks could kill... better to look po'd than pathetic though! Ugh to $35 a week.

Fantastic! Thanks

I'm sure glad you were able to avoid chemo. Your case is much like one of my best friends. She has several female close family members who have had issues, but is negative on the gene tests too. She has an MRI and mammogram yearly, and so far has been good. I'm so thankful they can catch it so early and do so much now. I'm glad Gil is dealing with things so well. Can you imagine the angst the routine changes would have caused a few years ago? She has came so far...

LOL She's smarter than me! Sometimes I struggle with those snapping containers... They incredibly smart.

Poor Ollie! It is so sad to see them just sitting there when they are usually so active. The good news is it will pass! When Timber was at his lowest point healthwise, it was heart wrenching to see him huddled on the towel in the floor of the hospital cage. The recovery is worth the downtime, though Ollie might not agree with the cone of shame

Glad the surgery is compete. I hope he recovers quickly and well!

Good news to start my morning! It was shocking to see "euthanasia" even mentioned. As Greywings said, even if they had to amputate the foot Ollie would have adapted quickly and could still live a full life.

You never know with the red feathers. Timber has a couple that he has had since I got him, so I'm assuming they are permanent. I call then his "beauty marks"

Oh my! Prayers for Ollie and for provision for the cost of his care.

Hello and welcome to you and Debbie! She's a beautiful bird
