Another update on Widget. He is doing so well. When he first got diagnosed, it was always a cycle of increasing his dose/adding new medicine, him doing better for a while, but always declining again. Now his vet thinks he has kind of adjusted. He has been doing well for months now, the only time I notice any decrease in energy is when he’s molting. Before, he would only do good for about 2 months maximum before getting worse again.
He plays multiple times a day, whistles once in a while, and really likes to show off. But most of all he is just a sweet little guy. I don’t think he‘ll ever be 100% but this is more than I could ever have hoped for. I’m so grateful every day especially considering when he first got sick, I was scared he wouldn’t even survive the stress of the vet visit.
He‘s been liking his veggies more, I think he really just likes fresh veggies everyday rather than trying to make frozen chop to thaw. I also got him some avi-cakes as a treat. And I just ordered this perch to put on the outside of his cage (he’s rarely ever in his cage but plays on the top a lot).
