He's arguing with me this morning. He did NOT want to come out of his cage and let me know it! Normally I'm not thrilled with a misbehaving bird, but less than a week ago he didn't have the energy to even verbally protest, let alone hop and fly away from me. He's a completely different bird and getting better every day.

I can't believe what a difference this has made!

So nice to hear an positive update! How are you administering the meds? Must Cookie be restrained or can you disguise his wonder drug in a reliable delivery source?

Meds are injections, so he has to be restrained. That part sucks, but it's the easiest way to know he's getting the full dose.

I hear ya! Hopefully it will get easier and just part of Cookie's routine!

None. My wife has one too many. Kidding!
How is the Cookie doing?
I was trying to come up with a pun about updating internet cookies, but it just wasn't happening.
