Sunny a female B&G macaw;
Japie (m) & Appie (f), both are congo african grey;
All are rescues- had to leave their previous homes for 'reasons', are still in contact with them :)
So sorry she had to leave you- they are quite special little creatures.


This may sound a bit weird, but thank you for sharing.
It is always good to get to know someones pet, even if it is only briefly, f.e. in a story about their life. (And glad to hear she had a great one with you.)

Awe, I'm so sorry for your loss...They really are special little guys. No one realizes how these guys have their own, special personalities until they meet one. 6 years-old is an extremely long life for a Hedgehog, so she was obviously well-loved and very well taken-care of. That's the only difficult thing about all of these smaller pets that are so intelligent and loving, such as Hedgehogs, Rats, Mice, Guinea Pigs, Rabbits, Ferrets, etc. They just don't live very long lives, at least not in the human-world...But it's obvious that you gave her a wonderful, full, very long life full of love...
