He was a happy bird who loved to whistle, chirp, and be whistled and chirped at in return. I have been fortunate to not have experienced death of loved ones that much in my life thus far, but it is really tough.

Sorry for your loss... cherish the memories you have. Another bird will not fill the spot, but it does help. RANDALL 1

Very tough to loose a pet/family member. We lost our girl (bulldog) Delilah when she was only 6 1/2 a year and a half ago and I still miss her. You remember the good times and what you meant to each other, dog or bird. vipersniper 1 Awards

I didn't want to replace the expensive berber carpet so I sold her. What I didn't realize is how much I loved her but I knew how much she loved me. She woud jump in our bed and with her paws push my ol lady out of the bed LMFAO! because she knew I was alpha and thought she was #2. Today I miss her so bad and hate myself for selling selling her . She was a loyal dog. I'm talkng risk her life to save my kids loyal. I hate myself for selling her . I think about her every day.

I was not the original owner of my bird, but my dog has been with us from the beginning.

They rely on you for everything, they give you unconditional love, and give you all that they have with no expectation of reciprocation. You are the center of their universe. The shock of taking away all that they have known is devastating to these creatures. I feel for your former companion, but at least you recognize what you have done. If there is a next time, try and understand why your companion is doing what it's doing, and work to mitigate it. Owning a pet is a responsibility. Work with them and give back what they give to you.
