PostSubject: Well, I think I'm keeping Sebastian   Thu Jul 23, 2009 3:47 pm

First, her new mommy had to bail out of taking her because they found out her husband is allergic to birds, so they have to get rid of all of their other birds too. Second, I'm just going to have to force myself to spend more time playing with her, even if that means letting her attack my fingers while I type, and third, I'm changing her name to Bella, because she's a girl. But, I don't know, it just hasn't felt right trying to get rid of her. Mom and dad raised me to be responsible, so instead of giving her to a home that may or may not take good care of her, I might as well just start dealing with the fact that she needs me more and she can sit on my desk and chew away at papers while I work. Here's hoping!

Scratch that, found a bird lady who offered to take her in. They're one of those families that thinks it's cute when birds wander onto your table and take food off the plate. Yeah, not my cup of tea, but perfect owners for a lovebird. I'm a little sad, but know I did the right thing. In my house, Sebastian was only getting a few minutes a day out of her cage. This lady even has an aviary set up in her backyard to let the birds fly around in good weather.

How perfect is that!?! Now Bella will get the attention she needs and someone will truly enjoy her. Basketball "Win-win all the way around!" she said as her Indian Ringneck Parrot pooped in her coffee cup. Idea

Yep, all around it worked out perfectly. She even emailed me last night to let me know that Sebastian gets along fine with the other birds so long as they don't come near her cage. heehee
