Roach's Hangout

[gail]

after 9.5 years of having my little trading buddy by my side, who brought tons of joy to my life and i made sure that she had the best life a parakeet could have, i had to have a vet put her down yesterday, somewhat unexpectedly.

she was fine and then boom! she would not eat or drink for 3 days, but i had a water dropper so i got fluids into her but the vet (super nice lady dr) suggested she is not doing well, and to let her go. she said she rarely sees them live past 8 years old.

im beyond devastated.

some of you, on ihub, got to know here over the years, just from pics and little stories of the funny things she did.

anyway, just wanted to post as i know a handful of my old ihub buddies are still around.

here she is enjoying a sunset in a screened in upper deck. i have gobs of pics and videos of her, but this is one of my favs.
