I lost maggie tonight!!

I can't sleep...

I never expected to lose her in my lifetime.

I'm just not prepared for that... and it's terrifyingly real at the moment.
 
Stay strong.
Tomorrow is another day.
I am so glad you don't have freezing nights there like we do here in CO.
I hope she is back tomorrow, but in the worse case she is not, the weekend is coming up and more people are going to be outside and hopefully to help.
How I wish I was there to help.
If you need anything, please PM.
 
OMG - I've been away and have not known of the hell of your last few days without Maggie. Now, I'm sitting here in a puddle of tears, I read page by page hoping for that celebratory post saying you found her. I'm literally sitting here sobbing knowing she's not yet safe at home. I can't imagine the level of anguish you're going through and I hope she flies back into your arms soon.
 
Mark, I keep praying for you and Maggie. I know this is an agony you cannot put into words. A Budgie group I'm on is showing an amazing outpouring of empathy for you as well, even though they don't know who you are. It's so touching to see that my post over there for you is already several pages long, and they are spreading the word on their social media and other bird groups. Bird people really care about this. Someone gave the billboard suggestion. I have no idea if it's really expensive or not, you'd have to call them to find out. Here are 3 companies.
Also, I'm sure you're already on this, since you're on a ton of pet finder sites, but just I case. https://www.parrotalert.com

I really like the billboard idea but I can imagine it's quite expensive. Anyone have experience with "go find me" site? We could start one for possible billboards or reward that is substantial enough so that anyone that finds her will call in for sure.

I would start the go fund me if I could, but I won't be back in the states until Tuesday.

We all want Mark to be re-united with Maggie. Every single one of us!

What I'm about to say hurts a lot, but I've got to let you all know that the forum does not allow any 'funding' sites. 2 folks ruined it for everyone (in the past). Of course we could ask Admin to make an exception, but I don't want anyone holding their breath, ok?

Now mind you, I'm not saying there can't be a funding site....just don't mention it on the open forum, if you get my drift. :54:
 
Another practical joke last night. Teenagers calling in the middle of the night.

"We just saw her." Click.

I'm getting ready to head out at the butt crack of dawn.

I think I'll call them back...
 
The only way I sing anything is off key... :D

Going back out. Wish me luck.
 
Mark do you have any support? Anyone helping you? Anyone you can call in? Someone to make sure you have snacks of protein and water and to be a shoulder to lean on?
I know you wont give up and you shouldn't. But you need help.


Have you tried the idea of one of your birds in a cage near where she has been sighted? She may be attracted to what she knows. Heck you could even sit there ALL day, if she's moving she may see you two.
 
Good luck Mark! Please try to keep the faith that you and Maggie will be reunited again! I know this has been difficult, but remember, it took you 3 weeks to get Tusk back. It hasn't been a week yet! With all that you have done and are doing I am confident you will be reunited!

Just wish the idiot calls would stop! People are so clueless and insensitive. Hugs to you!
 
Best of luck, Mark!
 
Thinking of you and Maggie always Mark! Those other people will get there special reward for their behavior......
 
Hope today is the day!
 
Well, I just walked the length of Pru road, with Wendy's screaming macaw video playing.

Nothing. I told myself that if I didn't have a solid lead by the end of today, I'd stop walking around in circles and would wait for that call.

20% chance of rain today.

YOU GUYS are my support.

I've gotten the word out. There are all sorts of folks in the community with their eyes open. I just need her to show up in the right yard.

Like I say, I've done everything humanly possible to this point. It's now a waiting game...
 
You and Maggie are on my mind and my prayers Mark. I'm half way across the world,yet I feel this community is so close to my heart.
Hoping to hear the good news soon.
 
Ugh. I can sense your exhaustion. Tiredness is the enemy, and as hard as it is right now, try to get some rest so you can face this with a refreshed mind & body.

I'm sorry you're getting prank calls. What little jerks. You should call them back. Then subscribe them to Cat Facts ;)
