Posted July 4, 200915 yr Twitter bird, sleeping so sweetly on the bottom of the cage. The horror as I found you on the bottom of the cage. Miss T standing next to me, shielding her from the facts. Brought you downstairs to tell her that you had left us... that you had died. The pain as I watched her heart break. I don't know what happened. Where you too cold? Was there something wrong? Only yesterday you were giving me kisses! You had food, you had water, you had room, you were singing and squawking having a grand old time. Why did you go? We are all heartbroken. Tara is colouring your coffin box as we speak. I don't know where you are going to go though... we don't have a yard to bury you in. Why did you have to leave?
July 4, 200915 yr Sure you can find some dirt darl... we live in a big land ... take a breake and explore some of it. A loss is always a confrontation.
July 4, 200915 yr Oh no not twitter!!!! this is a disaster... so sorry for your loss ...take him to the vet to get him checked to see what he may have died from...
July 4, 200915 yr So very sorry, I have been there with my own bird, Pretty, a lot of time we don't know what takes them down so fast, maybe fumes in the house or outside that came in, a undetected respiratory infection (that is what happened to me), please know you are in my thoughts during this painful time
July 4, 200915 yr i had something the exact same as you elly, as a little kid i had a sky blue male budgie.... his name was "preety" and all the sudden one night he died... i was in tears for days.... we had just moved to a new house and got the open fire place up and running.... i think the fume's got to the poor little guy.
July 4, 200915 yr Author he has a little coffin all decorated in orange. Miss T asked me to draw a picture of Twitter on the box so I did... and she coloured him in black. She keeps telling us that "Twitter has gone home" When I asked where was home she replied "Down the street and around the corner" Bless 3 year olds. I feel terrible for having not checked him in the morning. If I had, I might have noticed sooner. His Cage is near a window and we had forgotten to put his covers on overnight. I usually do it last thing at night, and Miss T usually wakes him up and has a conversation with him and talk time... I forget that he was just a baby - he seemed like he'd been a part of us for always. Miss T is already asking for a new bird. Might hold her off for a little bit. Though, the house seems remarkably quiet at the moment. My smoke detector is beeping at me occasionally and I think it is Twitter, and then I have to do a double take... *sigh* I hate loosing pets...
July 5, 200915 yr *hugs* for you and Tara, what a sweet little girl. Have been thinking of the two of you all night, and was very quick this morning to come and check my little one It's amazing how quickly they steal our hearts.
July 5, 200915 yr im so sorry to hear of your loss it may be to late but a large pot plant works well with a flowering plant
July 6, 200915 yr Nooo, l cannot believe this, It is so sad to hear this. l'm very sorry for your loss.
July 6, 200915 yr im so sorry to hear of your loss it may be to late but a large pot plant works well with a flowering plant Very sorry... I was going to suggest the same thing as GB... a lovely planter box at the front door, or on the window sill or somewhere where you walk past it every day, with some lovely flowering plants in it... and Twitter in his little coffin box telling them to grow.
July 8, 200915 yr Oh no that is so devastating he was with you for such a short time but the love you all had for him was so obvious in the things you wrote I am so so so sorry.
