My beloved Quaker is gone :(

My best friend and little buddy Whirly just passed away. He was a beautiful blue Quaker, and he was 16 years old. I loved him so very much. I cannot stop crying. I still don't understand what happened. It all happened so quickly. He started showing signs of illness Sunday, and I couldn't get him into the vet until this afternoon. The vet said it was most likely respiratory and that he was indeed very sick. He gave him an antibiotic shot and sent me home with some treated drinking water for him, and told me to keep using the UVB lamp. By the time we got home, I put him back in his cage, and he just laid down on the cage floor and went to sleep. :sad2: I guess I just came here to find others that can relate to how deep the love for a bird can be. I will miss him so terribly. :sad3:

I’m so sorry! I’ve lost two birds both budgies and female one due to being sick all of a sudden and the other for a unknown reason. One of them was a baby named angel it was really hard to go through. I lost my appetite and didn’t want to do anything with my other two birds because she was gone. But trust me it gets better! After her and my other bird died I told myself no more birds until I got Maggie who is the craziest bird I ever met! Who is also a Quaker parrot. I hope you know that your not alone because like I said before it does get better!

I am so sorry. It is so heartbreaking to lose your bird. Whirly sounded like a special bird who was well loved.
