wow ..where do i begin with him.
i got him when i was at vocational school for animal science and management.
ok..so when i got him..i think he might have been abused previsly to comin to the school. anyways .it took me a long time to build his trust. and all that. im not sure how old he was. but this was jutst before school ended and i graduated. so that would have been 97. im assuming he was round 1 yr old when i got him. so that would have made him like 10.
he was really picky with new people . he had to get to kno them before he made freinds with them.
so anyways.. i had another bird prior to him..nad they ended up being friends. and then the other bird passed on. so then i had tickles for a while. it was just him. then thats when i got baby..a bird i had handraised at the petstore i worked at in 00. she ended up dyin cuz she was a lil retarted. they think. idk. so then i had tickles alone again..then i got tweety..an bout 5 yrs later is when angel came into my life.
my memorys of tickles are.. the day i got him and brought him home..i couldnt think of a name for him..so i had him on my shoulder and he tickled my ear..and i was like.."hey taht tickles" and then i was like.thats a cute name. so i named him that.
he accidently flew away one day. when i had him out side. n i chased him down the street and into someons tree. and i thought for sure he was goin to fly away with the other birds . well someone that i workd with at the pet store suggested that i put his cage out side and if hes still around he would fly back to it. ok..that sorta worked..lol. he flew back..but 3 houses down into the neighbors garage. that was funny. i could always tell it was him tho cuz he had a missing toe nail on the back foot.
anyways..the day he died..he seemed alright. and a few weeks before that he wasnt himself. he wasnt eating ..drinkin..singin..playin..nothin..would just sit at the bottome of the cage ..and thats when i knew somethin was really wrong and that he might die that day. well thats when i got the surenge and put some water in it and gave it to him..and he seem ok after that. ok.so the weeks to follow he seemed to be gettin better and i thought he was fine. he was playin agian..was eatin..makin noise..and being his normal self..and then i came home that night..and i dont remember him not being alive..but he might have been dead. i was on the computer..and then when i went ot bed..i always let them out of they cages when im here..so they had room to play and do what they wanted to do. well for some reason i couldtn find him anywhere..and he was known for spookin..and flyin out of his cage..if the door was open and he got spooked. as tiels do. anyways..i went to close them up for the night to put them to bed..and he wasnt anywhere..he would ususally call to me if h e was stuck somewhere..or couldtn get out from where he was..ok..so he wasnt doin that..i looked everywere..startin to panic..then thats when i saw him..layin with his feet up in the air..like he had fallen off his purch.or something. thsats when i knew what happen..and i was upset but i never cried..i guess cuz i knew eventually and prepared my self for it.
but thats the story wit him. he will be missed. he was a good bird..and very sweet to me..always gave me kisses..and started to findally let me pet him on the head. he and tweety the budgie..always played . and they got into squables quite offten. and he and angel started to get into them too.
i really dont kno if they miss him or not. i cant tell a diffrence in them. but i guess they deal with it differently then we re used to. they seem happy tho.
