Mandy, hope you are doing better. Losing a pet is such a sad experience, and many people around us just do not understand.

Thank you all so much girls. Im still hurting bad, but doing a bit better, it will take a while before i get over it.
We had her cremated, it was the last thing we could do for her. It was heartbreaking to take her there, and make the arrangements, but my hubby did the talking, i couldnt get much out, he knew what i wanted done, and the lady deals with these cases daily, she was very sweet. It was very sad, yet very special to see what they do and how they treat our beloved pets. (if that makes sense) they placed her in a room on a table, they gave us the oppertunity to go in and say our last farewell.

Thank you all so much for your thought, prayers, and understanding. That means so very much to us.

Mandy I'm so sorry you are going through this. I argee with the others it is not silly at all. I had a doberman when I was a kid, I watched him get sick, suffer, & die. I think this is why I have not been close to another dog since. I became a cat person. Pets become part of our family & we have every right to be sad or cry. I hope your pain lessens each day. & remember that she was lucky to have shared her life with such a loving owner. If only everyone could care about their pets so much, we would have no need for agencies to protect them. *hugs*

Thanks Traci, you are such a sweety. We missed you girl, its nice to see you back!

I so glad you're doing better Mandy. Don't rush for your sorrow to go away. I think we each need to travel that road so that we can heal from our loss. Losing a pet is something that some people just don't understand. It's comforting when you have someone taking care of the arrangements that understands. My heart aches for you Mandy.

Thanks girl, i really and truely appreciate it. Yes i am taking it day by day, i do miss her a heck of a lot, and my heart aches for her, its hard to look at her pictures at this moment, and its difficult to walk over to the cage when my other bird calls for me, because shes just not there.

You girls are the best, i hope you all know what your words mean to me!

Aww, that was a sweet thing to do for you bird Mandy. I'm glad they treated you so well and that you got to say your final farewells in a special way. We are here for you if you need us. *hugs*

awww thanks Mandy & you are very welcome hon. hope you are doing ok today.

Hi Mandy, I am glad that you are feeling a little better, we all understand and love you girl.. Keep smiling :)

I'm so sorry Mandy. My son has a cockatiel and though he is not tame enough to be out of the cage we love him. He can be so funny and we would all hate to lose hm. Hope you are feeling better.

Thanks ladies, i really do appreciate all the understanding i get from you all... if i didnt have you all, dunno what i would do!
I am feeling better, tho we still talk a lot about her, i guess thats normal. We will never forget her, and i for sure will never forget how she loved life! Everyone that knew her, commented on how joyful, and loving she is.
