You were a "rescue" pet. You were saved from an abuser of @ 60 birds. When we got you you had no crown feathers, nor any tail feathers. We knew if the person who abandoned you showed up in court to claim you we would loose you forever. Luckily, he never showed. We kept you and loved you for eight years. You thrived and grew into on of the most loveliest cockatiels that ever lived or sung. Joey whistled to you every day and claimed you as his bird. I was one of the few people you spoke to. The dachshunds always wanted to get to you but we kept you far up and away. You were a happy fellow and I loved you. You brought melody every morning into my heart.
