Turkeygirl Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 Well guys, my sister came in from the barn this morning with one of my rabbits, a mini-rex which was my first mini-rex. Basically she was dying and I held her for about the last 2 minutes she was alive....makes me teary just thinking about it. And now my parakeet, Blue, I think is dying also. He has been having breathing issues for a month or more now and this morning he was all puffed up and breathing hard then he was having trouble staying on the perch and fell off. I held him but he likes being in his cage more then being held and he is still alive right now, sitting by his mirror. I wish God would take him as I hate to see him keep struggling but he is a tough little bird. I'm not sure if Blue had a stroke or what. Dogdoc or others who have animal medical backrounds, anyone know anything about these symptoms? Anyway this is a bummy day to say the least with my rabbit, Clover dead, and my parakeet, Blue, seemingly on the edge of dying. Things could be worse but when a pet dies that you love, you have to wonder to yourself, why do I bother having more pets because I hate it when they die.... No, this is not keeping my from hunting this last day of shotgun, I'm going out about 1/1:30. Love your pets people and give them the best.

huntinsonovagun Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 Re: Sadness... Why do you bother when they just die?? They are your friends!! Why do you make friends? They will die too. Death is just part of life. It will get better, and you will soon have new pets, but they will never replace the others. Keep your head up!

BuckNrut Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 Re: Sadness... I don't get that attched to pets. Heck, I'd be tempted to use that bunny for coyote bait if it were legal. Sorry if I've crossed the line here on political correctness. Not one for that either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkeygirl Posted December 14, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 Re: Sadness... Well I just got back from hunting and found my parakeet, Blue, dead in his cage. Mom said he died like 5 minutes after I left. I do know that when I was getting ready to go out and checked him, he gave a little twirp and the word goodbye ran through my mind, I'm serious. Anyway this has been a sad day, and no buck but we have a late archery season for a couple days so I might get out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
