Thanks. I’ve had a lot of rescues, and some of them don’t make the transition to other homes. It’s never easy to see them lying on the bottom of the cage. Mrs ArGee is no different than I am. Except I had time to get attached to these critters.
Gonzo still hasn’t responded to her absence. He’s still sitting on his perch with his back to me. :o[ Poor little guy. Beaker was a very calming influence for him. I know he misses her because they were bonded.
Perhaps you should nail a parrot to the perch (from Monty Python)
I took the liberty of examining the parrot and I discovered the only reason it was standing on the perch is because it had been nailed there.
I had to nail him there, didn’t I? If I hadn’t nailed him to the perch he would have sidled over to the bars, muscled them open, and VOOMPED away!
VOOMPED AWAY??? VOOMPED AWAY??? THIS BIRD COULDN”T VOOMP IF YOU PUT 40,000 VOLTS TO IT. IT’S DEAD, DEAD, DEAD, DEAD, DEAD!
(From memory - please don’t pounce on any mis-remembered lines.
