This has been the worst weekend of my life! Friday evening, when we had just got to our campsite (hubby was already there to set up, I followed in a different vehicle with kids and pets), we unloaded the kids, pets, and what luggage we had, then my husband decided to let birds out of their carriers, proceeded to open the bedroom door, then my daughter asks if we have a can opener. We forgot to bring one, so without thinking my husband opens the camper door to ask a neighbor if they had one. That is when Joey flew out.

We searched and searched. Called and called. Had all the campers on the lookout and we posted fliers everywhere. We stayed an extra day so we could look.

I feel hopeless and helpless. It is so hot and they're calling for thunder showers. Only good thing I can think of is that all the permanent campers have bird feeders and bird baths out. And there are so many finches, robins, and sparrows.

:( I don't want to go on.

Oh Sherry, this is heartbreaking. Are you home and did you give the permanent campers your phone number? Did you make a plan with them before you left? :hug5:

OMG I am so sorry you are going through this. Keep up hope and contact any resues or vets in the area and let them know. I would also take out an ad in the local paper. Hopefully someone will find him

I am so sorry! I hope you find him soon. Like you said, its good that the area has food and water for him if he needs it. Then maybe someone will see him when he goes to eat it too.

Oh Sherry...:hug8: Make sure the campers know about Joey, can you make flyers and post them around there? How far are you from the campsite?

We are only a 35 minute drive away from the campsite. Everyone that was there knew and most permanent campers were there this weekend. This is a very popular place. They have all our numbers and I am contacting the papers and vets now.

Hubby came home to get the suns so they could help call him back.

My legs are so sore, I am hoarse, I didn't sleep and I didn't eat. I figured it was a small fraction to whatever Joey was going through.

It is weird being here.

sending prayers and positive thoughts that you are reunited soon

remember to alert any delivery type people that visit the campsite as they would be back and forth on a daily basis
