Goodbye my sweet boy Twigs

[Kiwibird]

I am so sorry for your loss Julie. Twigs always sounded like such a character, the budgie who thought he was a big parrot. He's flying free now with all the big birds!

Im so sorry for your loss. Try not to blame yourself.

Julie, I am so sorry to see this but don't beat yourself up. You are a great parront. Hugs Honey.

Julie, I'm so very sorry for your loss of Twigs. I know how much you love all your birds and Twigs knew it too. You are an exceptional parront to all your babies, Twigs had a happy life with you. I know your heart is breaking, sending you hugs and love.

Fly free, Twigs. You will be forever missed.

Thank you so very much everyone. Your kind words are really appreciated more than I can say.

I have heard so many times of budgies living into their teens, and this was my goal for Twigs too. Despite the best care and diet, I suspect his genetics were not the greatest, from being a 'bird mill' baby.

Today I will take Twigs' body to the vet for cremation. His late partner came back in a cedar keepsake box in a beautiful fabric pouch, and also came with a heart shape aluminum name tag with his name on it, a clay footprint, and wildflower seeds. I want this for Twigs too. The company is PeacefulPaws.com.

Julie, I wish I could make this awful day easier for you. I remember being so touched by the way PeacefulPaws provided such a personal caring service for you before. I'm glad you are letting them do the same with Twigs, I know it will be comforting to have those sweet keepsakes.

Terribly sorry to hear this sad news

 

[Scott]

Oh Julie, I am so sorry. Finding any of our precious companions absent life is shocking, particularly when Twigs seemed fully recovered. Please don't blame yourself for not being being with him.

Fly Free, beautiful Twigs.

 

[cottontiel]

I'm so sorry Julie.

Although he was very lucky to have lived a life with you and your flock. I'm sure he'll still be around in spirit.

 

[Ann333]

Oh no I'm so sorry. It almost seems more difficult when it is a shock like this.

 

[wingsNthings]

NOT TWIGS! I'm so sorry!

 

[Dinosrawr]

I'm so sorry, Julie [emoji20] You've had such a rough go of things lately, and my heart is breaking for you. I'm sending hugs and my thoughts your way.

Fly free, Twigs. You were well loved and will be thoroughly missed by all [emoji20]

Oh, Jules. I am so deeply sorry for your loss, sweetheart.

You're probably right about his genetics, because the care and love you gave him were of the highest caliber. He wanted for nothing, and he couldn't have asked for a more caring parront.

I know you would have wanted to be there for him in his final moments, but what is far more important is all the time that you spent with him while he was here. That's what gave him the quality of life that he so enjoyed. You enriched his life even as he enriched yours.

Sir Twigs, your spirit was always far bigger than the body that housed it. So spread those wings as wide as you always envisioned and fly free, sweet bird.

 

[OrnithAudrey]

I'm so sorry for your loss! I hope you find comfort in your precious memories of him and know that you gave him the best life he could have ever hoped for.

 

[itchyfeet]

Oh Julie, I'm sorry. Thinking of you xx

 

[miloslave]

Mom to Charlie and Milo

 

[Mariar]

Sending you love and feathered hugs...I'm sorry you are going through this Julie.my thoughts are with you.

 

[GaleriaGila]

Patagonian HUGSZSZSZS!
I can't say it enough... old expression... "May the pain of losing him soon be outweighed by the joy of having had him in your life."

 

[LeaKP]
