I took Pooh the rescued parakeet to the vet today. He gave her (yes, they said she's a girl) a cortisone shot, but during the day Pooh deteriorated. I picked her up from the vet's around five. They said she probably had a concussion, and possible brain damage indicated by a blood clot in one of her eyes.

She surely was in worse shape than she was when I took her in, but I think it was because her injuries worsened as the day wore on. Shortly after we got her home and set her up with a light for warmth (suggested by the doctor),she stopped breathing.

Thanks for all your well wishes.



Thanks for trying so hard. You will be rewarded at some point.


And to Pooh... we are such bird lovers. Thanks for lending this little girl your name. We are seriously considering a Pooh II. Full name would be Pooh the Parakeet II. Nickname would be The Poohster.
