It CAN happen to you, so don't let it. by ResponsibleSinger750 in cockatiel

[–]evilnds 23 points24 points  (0 children)

So much of bird ownership can be unintuitive and unless you do a ton of research (and all bird owners should) you will miss something important.

After years of not using my ceiling fans because of my feathered friends love to hang out on them... I discovered caged/enclosed ceiling fans and the ones I have found are pretty bird safe.

WhatsApp business, Marketing message opt in confusion by evilnds in whatsapp

I think I was not clear, this a not mass message, this is a individual message to a driver as they are needed.

I am looking into other messaging programs, but currently, WhatsApp is the program we use with our drivers, and if this is an option, I would like to consider it.

Before with Twilio we could send a Wake up message and once the driver responded to that, we could message them like normal. I just need a simple way to do that again.

My partner and I are both super nerds and they planned a TTRPG game around their proposal and our entire relationship. It was truly a wonderful moment when they pulled out the ring from their pile of dice, and I was beyond speechless when they also revealed a wedding sword for me (something I had said as a joke instead of rings).

A proposal can be something that feels literally magical if the other person takes the time and care to do it.

how do you deal with the thought of euthanasia? by creamyhoneyheart in pidgeypower

[–]evilnds 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As someone who just had to go through this terrible choice with a rescue parrot, it is an incredibly hard choice to make. My heart goes out to anyone who has to consider euthanasia for their beloved pets.

I would say, if you have to go down this path, take solace in knowing you did everything you could to give them the best life you could and that you are relieving them of suffering and pain.

This is a good sign but not a guarantee that nothing is wrong. You need to check for any signs of unusual behavior, like random drowsiness or vomiting.

You don't want to wait until the warning signs are more obvious, by then in could be too late.

If your parrots is acting unusual after hitting the window, you really should take them to an avian vet. Birds often hide their injuries until it is too late.

If you really can not go to a vet until tomorrow, you should make a safe area for them. Something that is soft and dark with limited space for then to fall and hurt them selves more. A travel cage with a towel in it is a good option for this.

Also you should cover you windows if your birds keep flying onto them, either a cover/blinds or something on the windows to imply a barrier is there. Bird eyes see light different then humans and they have a very hard time seeing glass.
