Goodbye, Lucy.

[Zilaxia]

Lucy is gone. While I was at school my idiotic father decided to bring the bird cage outside and then OPEN THE CAGE DOOR TO MOVE SOMETHING INSIDE THE CAGE. So of course, Lucy flew out. He had the audacity to tell me the news while laughing and acting like I didn't even look at the bird anymore so I shouldn't be sad. I was the one who gave Lucy his baths, I was the one who gave Lucy actual good food when my family would always feed him seeds (AFTER I EXPLAINED TO THEM MULTIPLE TIMES THAT BIRDS CANNOT HAVE SEED EVERYDAY), I was the one who would take out Lucy and interact with him, play with him, and listen to music with him. Of course my dad never saw that because he never. ever. speaks with me. Please do not make excuses for my father as he is a horrible human being, instead, please hope that Lucy is doing good, wherever he is. To make this situation worse, I went through my neighborhood putting up posters about my missing bird, if by some miracle someone found him. What happened next was a grown man trying to get me to come to his house because he "had my bird", the image he sent me of "Lucy" was a random small gray bird that WAS OFF OF GOOGLE, needless to say I got angry. Also, I live in a gated community, and I put about 20 of these missing bird posters all around my community, 2 days later, I see that every poster has been ripped off of the trees, every. single. one. This has been a horrible experience. I hope Lucy is doing ok, wherever he may be. There are good news though, which I will be posting in a few minutes.

I am so sorry your bird is gone. I had to look because I had a Lucy.

Maybe you could put some posters in businesses or places more monitored so they can’t be taken down?

I offer my most, most, most heartfelt sympathy. I am so sorry. I will join you and others here in hoping and praying for the best. No matter what, Lucy holds your wondrous love in her little heart and soul, forever.

I am also wondering if you might need permission to post in your community? maybe if you jump through that hoop, file a missing pet report, etc, you can get the word out about Lucy? I wonder if you can report Lucy as missing or stolen because if you had posters up all over the person who has him is wrongly keeping him.

It seems really sh!tty that your dad was laughing when he told you this. The one thing I am wondering is if maybe he is ashamed underneath it all as I have seen people say very mean things and laugh. There is no way what was said could be funny or entertaining.

Anyhow I am very very sorry. I hope that your Lucy is being treated well and will be returned to you.
“a smooch from Willow for you”

The people who work in my gated community are ruthless greedy people who I have come across before and dealt with them, they are unpleasant people. The best I can do is go to different businesses and places outside of my community and put up more posters, which I will be doing. Thanks for Willows smooch <3

I am so, so sorry. I can only imagine how angry you must be and how painful this is. Me and my flock are praying for you. *virtual hugs*
But don’t give up just yet. Keep doing what you’re doing. Even though it feels like there’s no hope, just…try anyway.

 

[BirdyBee]

So sorry to hear about this. It really hurts when they fly away.

AAAACK! **Sends long distance hugs** How horrid to be forced into such a situation :'(

Charlie and redshift send long distance nibbles, too!

I’m so sorry that you haven’t found her. Somehow I missed the alert on this thread.

I live in an apartment complex with unpleasant unhappy people, too. I’m sorry you don’t have support and help to find your bird.

I’m also sending a psychic smack down to your dad and the creep that tried to lure you to his house. That’s terrible.

I don’t know if you’ve got any good news since you posted last but if you’re willing, please let us know. I hope you’re ok.
