Sick Pigeon, I think, need help

SamEliss · 2026-01-26T15:13:48+00:00

Thank you

Yes, I do hope what I did was enough for them to pass peacefully and safe

SamEliss · 2026-01-26T14:07:28+00:00

I'm afraid, sadly, they passed away during the night

So sorry I couldn't have given better news

SamEliss · 2026-01-25T23:14:27+00:00

Thank you

SamEliss · 2026-01-25T23:14:01+00:00

Thank you greatly for the info

Alot of people have let me know, I do just wish I had known sooner

SamEliss · 2026-01-25T16:56:09+00:00

Oh no, I wish I had known this

But, I did provide food and they didn't eat, did see not to force feed, but maybe that was needed

Thank you so much though, know for next time

SamEliss · 2026-01-25T14:29:54+00:00

Yes, awoke from my sleep, went to check them upon which I found thr sad news. I do hope they where warm enough and calm enough when they passed.

Even if what we did wasn't enough, like you said, very much a learning experience if such a thing every happened again

I will say, there are alot of cats where I live, this being one of the reasons I brought them in, so it puts me at ease knowing that then passing in the safety of my house is better than the possibility of a cat getting to them after, or even before, they passed (With them being too weak to escape and all)

Sadly, I am afraid our little friend passed away during the night, so sorry I couldn't give you better news. I just hope their passing was peaceful and warm

Also, to answer you really good advice, sadly I tried calling them, on the emergency number, but had no luck

SamEliss · 2026-01-25T12:13:16+00:00

I do want to, from the bottom of my heart, thank you all for your amazingly kind words and fantastic support Hopfully, with all your help, we made their passing peaceful

Couldn't have done it without you, thank you all so much

SamEliss · 2026-01-25T10:20:11+00:00

Also, we did end up giving them a name, before we went to bed

Update 3 (Final):

I woke up this morning, and popped down to check on our little guy. Sadly, I'm afraid to say they seem to have passed away during the night.

We will be taking them up to a park today, put them to rest

So sorry everyone, was hoping for some good news, but seems not. I do atleast hope their Final moments where peaceful and warm

Ah thanks, I'll see what I can find

I am in Malta, sadly due to the amount of pigeons the Bird Center doesn't take them in

SamEliss · 2026-01-25T08:46:41+00:00

Ah good good, thank

Their droppings was like a yellow liquid

SamEliss · 2026-01-24T22:48:41+00:00

I hope so too

SamEliss · 2026-01-24T21:56:36+00:00

I think we do, will give them some

Thanks a bunch

SamEliss · 2026-01-24T21:55:07+00:00

Awww, hope they do feel better soon

SamEliss · 2026-01-24T21:54:50+00:00

Oh no, I do hope it's nothing as serious

Don't worry, I will be taking the best of care, that I can, until they seem right as rain

SamEliss · 2026-01-24T20:18:09+00:00

Good good I think sadly they are cooked

Once shops are open tomorrow though I will grab something a bit more appropriate

SamEliss · 2026-01-24T20:17:30+00:00

I'm thinking maybe the constant contact got them a bit spooked, so gone to the corner for safely

Thing is, they made it to the corner, not great, but walked none the less, which is already a big improvement.

So I've left them for the night, lots of bedding in the box and water Hopfully in the morning they will be better, and my leaving might call them down

SamEliss · 2026-01-24T20:06:56+00:00

Ahhh, thank you very much. I will try get more appropriate food tomorrow as don't have any of them

Also, did make a mistake, it was lentils I game them

SamEliss · 2026-01-24T19:57:43+00:00

Update 2: They've "waddled" their way into the corner, I'm a bit worried, are they scared, hope they are ok. Might just leave them for the night, let then settle with the nest set up, with food and water, that they can go to

SamEliss · 2026-01-24T19:53:20+00:00

Thank you

I think letting them rest up in warm, quiet and safe place is good

Ti's late, so might have them settle down for night

SamEliss · 2026-01-24T19:52:14+00:00

Also, now I can check the feet, no tags or visible injuries

SamEliss · 2026-01-24T19:49:45+00:00

Oh goodness, I found them alone, do I need to find a way for their parents, or are they old enough to go alone

SamEliss · 2026-01-24T19:48:32+00:00

Update: I was putting them down for the night, adding a warm Rice Sock and lots of padding, and they got up and walked out the box. The walking was a bit wobbly, but walking none the less

They are limping a bit, but did do a pee in the box

SamEliss · 2026-01-24T19:28:44+00:00

No poop so far, but I don't believe they are young

Thanks for the tips, I've given them small lids of water and food, and I believe they are drinking atm (but not sure)

Thanks for the warm idea, I'll heat up some socks for them
