Poor Kyo :(. I'm so glad she'll be okay. She'll be back to her old self in no time I'm sure!

I am so glad to hear she is okay! She's lucky to have you.

You can try giving the metacam on a favorite food or putting a drop on your finger for Kyo to lick off. It tastes like honey - my conure goes crazy for it. Long ago when he needed it, he actually got mad when his dosage ended! He pouted for days!

I hope you can relax and sleep easy tonight knowing she is safe. Many healing vibes to your little girl!

I "drugged" an almond with it... But the look of betrayal on her little face when she took a bite could have killed me if looks could kill... She does not like the "honey" taste at all.

So glad to hear all is well and that you are managing to get her to take the meds ...Kyo was very lucky to have such a wonderful mum taking care of her.

I've had to give meds before and mixing it into a tiny bit of peanut butter (no salt or added sugar or sweetener!) works like a charm, especially if they don't take it any other way. Even a pea-sized amount of peanut butter is enough for them to go gaga.

She is a weirdo and doesn't like peanut butter! I'm going to try putting it on some banana today to see if that's easier.

So glad your bird is okay! Very recently I was walking outside in front of Office Depot and suddenly this little black bird flew right into the window and fell to the ground onto its back... it was a fatal blow and make a loud thump!!!... the little bird was dead :(

I waited and waited for it to come to life hoping it was just in shock/unconscious but it never did. That ruined my whole day. Felt so bad.

I have beautiful palm tree stencils on my windows... they are very pretty and make sure my tiel doesn't fly into the windows. They can easily be peeled off and re-applied if needed :)

Sarah, I'm just seeing this for the first time. I'm sorry you and Kyo had such an awful experience. Kyo's lucky to have you and you're both fortunate to have such a good vet so close. Glad to hear your baby is better, it was a relief to see the adorable video.
