Last year I made a post. I asked wether or not I should get a sun conure from our local pet shop. Many, intelligently, said no. They were right. Being a stupid, ignorant, overly excited teen, I didn't listen and just got him anyways. This was in the summer. Great progress, I saw him since hatching and took him home beginning of summer. Being off of school and no work yet, I had plenty time to spend with him. We bonded, and I taught him how to wave and high five, potty trained. Fast forward to the start of school, things pick up. Not bad, just more hours away, so I got more toys. Fast forward some more and I get a job, I need to start saving for college. Less and less time comes and I'm just exhausted when I AM home. That's now... I can't continue like this. He needs, no, DESERVES better. I have never had such a companionship. But he's taught me so many lessons... All life has value, and that sometimes, things are too much to handle despite how prepared you may be.
So... That's that... I sob both tears of immense sadness and joy now. He will find a good and permanent home, I will make absolute sure of it. Later in life, I'll try again. I'll take in another bird in need of a better home and use Sammy as my example... He will help a future precious, I swear on it.
To everyone here, well, I'm sorry. I'm doing what many shouldn't, sending him away from his home. This is absolutely completely my fault. But thank you, thank you all... I will still linger on here. I still have Skye and Cloud, my budgies. I want to start there.
To those of you who want a bird and think you're prepared... please, please think more. Don't be me.
You're my best friend, Sammy... you've changed my life, it's time for me to change yours.
