Jamie was a sweet little cockatiel who passed away November 6, 2010.
I can't share stories about him anymore on the board like I used to, so I will just share my memories here. I feel like when I don't mention him, he will think I forgot :sad1: but I didn't.

I used to love coming home from work and seeing him. He would run so fast, as fast as his little legs could carry him to peek out the bars to say "Hello, click, click, Hello Jamie" He always showed how much he valued me :heart:

His cage was beside my bed and every night I would go to bed, he again, would RUN across the cage to sit with me while I fell asleep. Once I was asleep, he would go back to his heat lamp and have his sleep :)

He loved sitting on my shoulder and he would hold on for dear life so he could stay as long as possible. He would preen my hair and give lots of kisses.

He would get so mad at me too, when I gave him a bath, he would hold a grudge ALL day :mad:

He loved having his cheeks, beak and head scratched.

He loved being outside the most of all my birds, he loved the sun.

He really loved being part of the family, in the middle of it whenever he could.

Newman still says "Hello Jamie, I love you Jamie" everyday. I hope Jamie can hear him :(

Anyways, losing a bird that you are so connected to, is very hard. When I think of him my heart aches :sad1: I wish I had one more day with him, a sunny day, where we could sit outside together and enjoy the sun.

He was a wonderful little guy.
I stop myself from remembering now, because it still hurts.

I loved that little bird, I wish he was still here. His hospital cage where his last minutes were is still covered up with his sick blanket and hidden in the closet. I can't look at it, I can't see the towels he sat on in there :( I haven't looked in there since he died. I also have the shirt I was wearing that he died on unwashed and in my drawer.

Again, thank you everyone for listening and reading.

I let myself think of him tonight.

Dotty I do understand. I am the same with Cindy's memory.

I know that Jamie is in a better place. I just know it.

This was a very nice, sentimentle piece. Sometimes it helps to write about companions that have passed away.

Thanks for sharing, and sorry for your loss. <:)

If you have a feather of his, you might want to check out this site (Perpetua DNA Jewelry - A memento, DNA pendant, engraved charm and chain for pets and people.). I've done with with Zoey my M2 (who is still alive) and with several of my very special ferrets who have since passed one. You can take a drop of blood, or a feather- and send it to them (they are the people who do bird DNA sexing) and they take the feather and make a DNA necklace for you. So you always can have alittle bit of your special guy with you. Its been very comforting to me, that I can take them with me when I'm having a bad day- and it just feels like they are near me. Check it out- its not horribly expensive.
Aniverseries are really hard. If you ever want to talk about it- let me know- I'd love to hear all about your special guy! Sometimes I still talk about mine like they are still around...How they would like something, stuff like that- I think its natural, especially with one you were really close to.
