Saying goodbye to Mischief

An appointment with the vet today ended sadly after our little blue budgie was euthanised due of a cancerous growth. It must have been really aggressive as his abdomen soon became very distended. Although he seemed happy, with a good appetite, I am sure he would have been in discomfit.



Mischief, with Tweety-bird to his left, having a break from the aviary: I think we were expecting a thunder storm, hence the decision to bring them inside. Anyway, as it turned out, it didn't come to anything in the end.


 
However, the sky was looking rather ominous again last night, once again thunder expected, but apart from a good downpour that was it.

Storms come and go, as do pets, and it is always sad to let our pets go. Mischief was eleven or thereabouts and unable to fly due to his malformed wings. He'd had a bad start, but lived longer than expected and was a real little character.

  1. Am sorry to hear the loss of one of your budgies. The clouds do look grim, hope your summer is going well. :)

  2. Thanks Teo, I miss the funny little fellow. Tweety-bird is inside now: he is starting to talk again. When I figure out how to do it, I will record his repertoire to my blog. Got a feeling it has to go onto YouTube first.

    Our summer has been fantastic despite those ominous clouds. Hope you you are enjoying the season also.
