i feel so bad i practically harassed the bird.i dont want him to think where a danger and i dont know how we show that to a wild animal. Ive tried to scoop hom many times and its scaring him. He stayed on my hand a bit and it made me happy but i feel awful i baiscely harrassed him so he can understand my hand is not a threat. It was selfish of me.

he may die and i dont know what to do. I want him to feel love from us if he will die from a bite infection. My mon told me he doesnt fly well( witch is probably why she was able to catch it) i hate the fact he sees my hand as a threat ive been selfish i dont know how i can apologize to it.

ill call a wild bird center tomorow Hoping my parents can bring him theire.

i feel so bad it was selfish of me i knew it was not nice and i letted my needs take control and it was mean i just want to apologize to it and give him love or food

i dont even know what it eats i just feel so bad ive been selfish

how do i apologise to it and redeem ill call the burd center tomorow i just feel guilt I shouldnt have done that.

I apologised to him but its not like he knew what im saying. I dont know what to do i feel awful. I dont want him to know where a threat and to panic when he sees us hes all alone in a cage recently bitten i dont want to think hes is danger locked up

it looks like a sort of finch, doesit eat seeds? Ill call the wild bird center we realisticly cant give it the best care

He's going to need antibiotics unless he gets extremely lucky. I have seen this before and within a day or so they start getting sick from the cat saliva basically poisoning them. Maybe a vet or pet shop might have what he needs and hoping for the best but that's what he needs right away.
You can try baby parrot formula but he probably eats seeds and bugs in the wild. We raised a tiny baby house finch with pet store parrot formula put down her throat with a eye dropper I think and she did great. He might just lap it up from a spoon if he hangs in there.

The best thing you can do to apologize to him is to get him the help he needs. Cat bites are full of bacteria. Most rehabbers I follow on Facebook urge people not to give food and water because it can actually make things worse.

I hope you find someone to help him.

In the future it would be really good to keep your cat from going outside, or at least put a bell collar around him/her. Outdoor cats decimate bird populations and tend to live much shorter lives than ones that live indoors. You'll be doing your cat a service to keep it in :)

Any update on this little one? Did you or could you happen to find a rehabber to take it and help, they often have antibiotics and other meds.

He saddly died slowly in the box by morning. I supose he at least died in a calm safe space.i dug a hole and filled it with flowers after my shift and putted pit pit in it. rest in peace pit pit you were adorable.
Pit pit didn’t deserve that, our cat isnt really ours at this point ether she always outside. Maybe a bell but she remouved them. Ill see if theirs a way we can prevent that from hapening this isnt news to us.
