Yes, sorry! I realized my anxiety levels are probably due to starting a new medication this week, oops. What timing! Well, we will muddle through this together. I asked my partner if I was this nervous when we brought Kirby home, and she exasperatedly told me YES! I’m just a worrywart by nature, I’m afraid. But, two and some change years on, Kirby and I are well set in our routine and doing fine. Sammy seems to like my partner as much as he likes me, so for now she’s taking charge of him so that Kirby doesn’t feel jilted and I don’t have to feel quite so overwhelmed.
Going to see if I can’t get a weight on him this morning; but I also have to drive Kirby to the vet for a drop-off nose cleaning. Whew. Sammy’s nostrils look about as bad as Kirby’s; I assume it’s probably related to cigarette smoke. If anyone has any tips to detox a bird who lived in a household with a lot of smoking that would be great, because this is not something I’ve had to deal with before.
