I lost my baby boy, my "soul bird" this weekend and I am heartbroken. 12 years of love and memories, but unfortunately his little budgie body just wouldn't let him live forever.

Right now I've printed a bunch of his pictures, I have his feathers, I'm listening to his beautiful chirps and songs....

But I want something more too. Something special to remember him by. I'm curious what other people have done?

(including pictures of my boy just because he's adorable)

Rest in peace my sweet boy. I'll love you forever.

I have a little "altar" for all my passed babies.
Urns, a tiny cup full of their favourite treat next to each, picture collage of them for each, and their feathers in the urn boxes, but I would like to set them up somehow instead of inside.

I am so sorry for your loss

So sorry for your loss. I have a Christmas ornament with my tiel's picture on it. Also a painted portrait and my boyfriend made a photo blanket for me.

I keep budgie tail feathers. Maybe you can frame some.

We got Kai’s talon prints and plan to get his prints tattood on our shoulders where he will be forever.
We also got a little box urn with his photo for the front.
My niece just sent me the sweetest little gift as well. It just arrived today when I was having a particularly hard day thinking of my sweet birdie boy. It’s a photo of him that she had made into a cute print with several of his favorite things all around him.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I also have kind of an altar set up for my birds that have passed, including my dogs and my heart bunny. I have their urns, their footprints done in ornaments, their feathers and collars for the dogs.
