Gizmos Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 My name is Debbie and I live in scotland. I have just recently taken over care of my mums african grey called Gizmo. I think he is about 9(ish)yrs old and is very lovely. My mum died last summer so Gizmo has had to deal with her loss just the same as the rest of us. He was staying with my brother but he found it difficult to afford the food Gizmo needs and give him the attention he needed so I have taken Gizmo, he has been with me for 2 days now. During the last 3 months of my mums life I had taken over responsibility for Gizmo so he knows me well and even though he hadn't seen me for 8 months he appears to remember me and has been regurgitating and doing little dances for me. I think maybe I have the same voice as my mum. Anyways, I'm glad I found this forum as I've already had some much needed support to let Gizmo out of his cage. I'm sure I'll have lots more questions, probably by tomorrow morning : ) I have a couple of photos but they are a couple of years old, I'll take new ones soon....

BenzMama Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 He is a very handsome boy! May his presence help to fill the void left by your Mum's passing as you & Gizmo journey on together. I'm sure that remembering you has & will continue to ease his transition into his new home. We look forward to hearing lots about how things progress for you both ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
