Alexandrine (deceased - 27/5/2018)

Indian Ringneck
After a 8 month struggle Tinku the Alexandrine that I rescued from its previous owner passed away on 27 May. He had started to look better for a few days before his struggle resurfaced. He kept losing his wings but still kept going. But 2 days before his death he began showing signs of sickness once again. I knew this time it was extreme since he could not even climb on to my hands. The vet said that the infection had surfaced once again and gave him medication. But on the intervening night of 26 and 27 May Tinku passed away. I hope death could give him the peace he would have deserved. Miss you Tinku!!

Our condolences on Tinku's passing. You certainly tried to give him the best care possible.
I made a donation in Tinku's name to the Cornell College Vet school, directed to be used for parrot related studies and programs. The poor boy can now fly free over the Bridge.
