Not sure if anyone remembers me, I try to do the secret santa every year, and I occassionally have questions about my bird Pri.

Pri was my first bird ever and a awesome bird!! I am so very hurt by his loss, he is also my last pet bird I had.

Words cannot express how sad I am. I have never felt this sad about a pet before but yesterday night (Aug 3, 2019) I found him not chirping in his cage. Well this was a white faced blue lovebird. He was really smart, I knew all his different chirps, he whistled at me, he loved scratches and massages. It is really hard to say goodbye, I will never forget his loving personality. He loved everyone and wouldn’t bite anyone. He was spoiled rotten by me with all the toys and a giant cage. I couldn’t stop crying when I found him. He was like my best friend. He just turned 6 years old too. Timmy my husband helped me burry him in a box in our backyard late Saturday night. I needed closure for him. You brought Timmy and me so much joy!! I love you, I wished I was able to say goodbye...R.I.P. Pri 06/06/2014 - 08/03/2019

-he would bobb his head when he's excited it was soo funny! He would also feed me lol or try to!

He was so silly and loving, I miss him!! :arghh::crycry::sadbye:

Of course we remember you. :hug8:

There is a very profound saying. Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened. It's absolutely true. It also cause the biggest hole. We understand.

Just for you.

FAITH.

This morning I had a strange request,
I did not understand.
An invitation to fly free
Throughout the Heavenly land.
But I had found my Heaven!
I had Heaven here on earth.
I had a home that gave me warmth,
That gave me love, and true self worth.
But we all know that one day comes
A time when all move on.
A time when we must move ahead
And trust what lies beyond.
So I decided not to fear,
I would trust that guiding light.
I went with the faith you gave me
Over to the other side.
I flew free with you within my heart
Towards the other shore.
The love you gave will stay with me,
You will be with me, forever more.
I have with you eternal bond,
Through faith, through love so sweet.
Have faith in me, as I did you,
Believe! Believe! Again we’ll meet.
So do not cry beloved friend,
I am joyful, I am free.
The bond we hold between us
Is one we hold, Eternally.

-he would bobb his head when he's excited it was soo funny! He would also feed me lol or try to!

He was so silly and loving, I miss him!! :arghh::crycry::sadbye:

Hi lauren, yes I remember you, wonder where you've been! . So sorry For your loss.
I know exactly what your going through. I buried 4 of my best freathered loves in back yard. ( all from old age, and age related illness) It's really not easy at all. I held sparky nearly 3 hours petting him after he passed. I couldn't let go.
There's some on here that have never faced that yet, and they don't fully understand how it rips at you.
Then there's other that have.
You have all my hugs for today!
