Howard hasn't been active at all lately and hasn't even been trying to grab toys to play with. I was cleaning his house and thought if I left his door open it might get him to check it out and at least climb a little. I waited in the kitchen so he couldn't see me and heard him mumbling for awhile. I went it and he had taken the shortest route. He went out of the bowl holders that I had left open and just sat there looking pleased with himself. 20210530_165418.jpg

Sounds like Howard isn't feeling so good. When is his next vet appointment?

You and your vet have done so much for Howard. Somebody get busy and find out more and some cures for avian diabetes.

When he was first diagnosed she put him on glipizide but had better luck when we went to glyburide. He's had two secondary infections. It's almost like the med works for awhile than back to square one.

So he is not only handsome but smart too.
