What did you do today?

[Charlie Horse]

I'm so glad to hear he's doing better. I tend to be really overly affected by the stress of having sick animals. I've had about 4 hours of sleep since Crayola died. BTW I figured out what killed him. He suffered from night panic attacks (Sometimes very strong) if you woke him up with a startle of some kind. I'd gone to get some laundry a friend did for me and I had a low battery in the car. Parked a bit differently to use the outlet to charge overnight, and the headlights swept near the windows a bit more than normal. I'm positive that he saw the light moving and did his startle thing and this time it gave him a heart attack. Everything matches up perfectly with this explanation. Such a waste to die from fright when he's really not afraid of anything but the hawks he liked to watch for out the window. I cant blame him for dieing of panic though-- I'll probably croak from the stress of worrying about a sick animal. I now have a new Caique parrot. I had to rush and buy another because breeding season is over for the entire year and there were 2 left. Expensive But why not spend on the things that matter most, eh? New little guy is settling in rather well already, but Mozam Beak the other parrot is suspicious that something is different.
