I lost maggie tonight!!

How about law enforcement, Mark? They are trained to be observers of their environment, and many have a soft spot for K9s. Perhaps by extension they will be willing to make a mention during their shift briefings? Doesn't require any extra preparation or work, and they have lightning-fast communication with their HQ.

I looked at the local news for down there. Those guys earn there keep. I think the only thing you could ask was " May I put something on your break room bulletin board.

I told myself I was going to stop walking the neighborhoods, and wait for that call... but of course I didn't! Walked around in circles calling for her after work again tonight... came up empty.

Pretty much describes how I was feeling when I got home... empty!

Walked in the door. My birds had "rearranged themselves."

Kiwi was in the living room. Sweepea was on top of Maggie's cage. Tusk and Lila were up on the big playstand...

Sally flew to me before I had both feet in the door, and pressed her face against my cheek.

I KNOW IN MY HEART SOMEONE HAS HER!!! I WISH THE DAMNED TV INTERVIEW WOULD AIR...

I BASICALLY SAID I'LL PAY YOU MORE THAN YOU CAN EVER SELL HER FOR ANYWHERE. SHE'S BONDED TO ME. NOW SOMEONE PLEASE DO THE RIGHT THING AND CALL ME!

 

[Blancaej]

Something has to give soon. This is just tearing you apart. I am praying and wishing she is home with you VERY soon! That TV interview is so important. Praying it airs soon. In the meantime, sending lots of hugs your way.

Mark if I had her you would have had her by now and I wouldnt take the reward.

I took a nap this afternoon and I dreamed that we had Maggie in my car. She bit my finger. in that same dream a bonded pair of macaws were living at the family dollar less than a mile from me.

I keep checking in hoping to see a title change to found.....and I still have hope. Mark is a good person and an outstanding member of this community, karma tends to favor Good people.

Hang in there buddy, you haven't seen any attempts to sell her, hopefully someone has her and doesn't quite yet know how to go about finding her owner....

 

[Birdman666]

I have actually done a fairly good job of cutting off every mainstream avenue of trying to sell her... if someone does that, I'll know immediately, and I'll just go and buy her back.

I WISH someone would try that... I'm set up to deal with that one.

Right now, it appears someone is trying to keep her...

GOOD LUCK CAGING HER! THAT WILL PISS HER OFF TO NO END... AT THAT POINT I'M HOPING THE REWARD MONEY WILL START LOOKING REALLY GOOD TO SOMEONE...

DAY 9 HAS COME AND GONE...

AND THAT PUNK KID HAS FIGURED OUT HE'S BEEN BLOCKED AND USED SOMEONE ELSE'S NUMBER.

DOESN'T MATTER. I RECOGNIZE THE VOICE... AND ACTUALLY, THE LITTLE BA$TARD LIVES ON CHERRY FIELD DRIVE... I TALKED TO HIM, AND GAVE HIM A FLYER... HE THOUGHT THIS WAS FUNNY! I actually know where he lives... I might just show up on his doorstep one of these days...

Mark.... you...don't...think..... that sociopathic punk may be holding Maggie and has the audacity to taunt you?

 

[psychocircus91]

Mark,
as you know lost birds often turn up weeks and sometimes months later! I know it is so easy to dwell on the negative scenarios, but hold the faith. There are at least two positive scenarios for every negative. Where there is a will, there is a way..

No. He's about a 15 year old little punk kid who thinks I'm an idiot for being so attached to a pet, and thinks taunting me is funny... but I remember who this is, and I actually know where he lives.

Think he'll still think it's so funny when I call him back from his doorstep?!

This is NOT a nice neighborhood...

 

[Kiwibird]

What a little such and such! If it were me, I might swing by and inform mommy and daddy what Jr. is up to.

In THAT hood? Jr. is what he is BECAUSE OF mommy and daddy...

Better to just call him next time I'm in the neighborhood, and ask him if he wants to step outside, just to have him piss himself...

I know what house it is.

 

[Flboy]

Mark, you are one of my main go to in this group! I have written and rewritten this since your nightmare began, and I hope my over thinking doesn't get in the way of what I am trying to say!
You are such a source, inspiration, coach, helper to so many of us! I really have been waiting for the 'happy dance' announcing the end of this trial to post this, but I am getting scared!
Even in this nightmare, you give encouragement to many of us! If not for your, still, ongoing support to this community, then for the fact that,-stuff happens! By that I mean, you live for your babies and only want the best for them! I am starting to run out of courage and may not post this if I continue, starting to get tongue (finger) tied! I have been crying right along with you, but, but, I am still waiting for the happy dance!!

 

[Birdman666]

You and me both... I'm waiting for that happy dance....

As for the kid, I had "a talk" with him the other day, before blocking his number. Now he's back at it with another number.

So, parked in his driveway... calling his little butt...

THINK IT WILL STOP?! I need this little F-er to stop calling me!!!

Enough already. You've had your fun. Time to stop you little piss ant insensitive teenage punk. I'm starting to get REALLY FRIGGIN' PISSED OFF NOW! Dude calls me after midnight three friggin nights in a row, just to try and torment me...

Like I need that right nowi

If it keeps up, have any buddies who are cops?

 

[Birdman666]

You wait til he's out front with his little buddies. Park next to his driveway, and phone his little butt... wait for him to be a smart a##, THEN THE DOOR TO THE CAR OPENS AND YOU STEP OUT.

CARE TO REPEAT THAT?!

Embarrass a teenager in front of his or her friends and they will never live it down... (just ask my daughter, I've been doing it to her for years! )

 

[Birdman666]

There is absolutely nothing at all illegal about making phone calls... nothing the cops can do about it.

I may just start bombarding his butt with calls...

Can't sleep at 2 am...

Hey... hey.... buddy... why you gotta mess with me?

Hey... hey... buddy.... what did I ever do to you...

Hey... hey... buddy... aren't you the guy who lives at - insert address here...

Hey... hey... buddy... Am I gonna have to pay you a visit to make these phone calls stop...

Hey... hey... buddy... is this still fun to you?!

Dude, you left your CALL BACK number in my phone... I know who did it.

MORONS!

That method would actually save me a trip up the hill... 2 am to 4 am - ish...

 

[Doublete]

Actually, it IS harassment. But as I found out recently due to an online "friend" that started to put my phone number out there, it's VERY hard to do anything about.

Let the numbers go to voice mail, and you'll get all the evidence you need.

 

[Doublete]

Oh I had lots of evidence. Police just don't do much.
It is illegal though.
