When you hand your sick pet over to someone else...


... it feels like the wrong thing to do. Even though they are avian vets, and will watch him every hour even overnight, and he will get the best supplements, and saline injections, and liquidised food straight into his crop. Even though he is being kept in an incubator like the one above which keeps him warm (his body temp is low and he has lost weight) and gives him extra oxygen. Even though he's in the best possible hands at the moment, it feels wrong. Because I know him best, and I want him home with me. If he goes downhill and dies, I can't stand the thought that he would be on his own away from me for that. I miss him :(.
