Hello all, I know a few of you have been waiting for updates.

This is a bit late, but I have taken about a day away from Avian Avenue to mourn.

Monday morning, I called our vet back and she confirmed that she could fit me in, in the early afternoon. I was ecstatic, finally getting somewhere with getting Mabel some proper care and rehabilitation.

Within the next hours, she finally got a bit of appetite back for she was eating, drinking, and being more active than she had been. I thought she was getting better, but I guess it was a rally or a surge. She started acting funny and I realized soon after what was going on.

I had this happen to one of my rats when I was a bit younger, passing on the day of a vet appointment. It is really the worst kind of kick in the gut.

I have solace in the fact that she is not suffering anymore. She was a strong and feisty Quaker who loved nothing more than screaming and chasing budgies away from her millet spray.
She used to scream every time I walked into the room until I walked over and let her "kiss" my cheek.
She deserves to not suffer.

Over the rainbow bridge, her legs are in full use and her special needs are cured.
I will truly miss her. :sad11:

It truly seemed like she would be okay in the end. But as we all know, birds are very stoic creatures.
She only had 1-2 hours until she could be examined :sad1:
