What a lovely story and more so the message behind it: you will always find the place where you belong ❤️
Animals are incredible. I love seeing the relationship between my daugthers and our dog. He was a puppy when my oldest was born and has been their best friend ever since.
Thank you so much Veronica. "I love seeing the relationship between my daugthers and our dog" - I could imagine this. I also love seeing the relationship between my niece and her 2 goldens and 2 cats. they tolerate so much. LOL - Thank you for taking the time Veronica.
Thank you Neela, this story is absolutely beautiful. Kerry and Gigi were so lucky to have you as a loving parent. And we are lucky that you were willing to share their life with us through this article.
Gigi was blessed by your kindness, as was Kerry 💙 💛 this story was so touching. And I am curious, how do you nurse a bird? Do they need to be fed with a pipette, and what can you feed them while ill?
Hey Nadine - Happy Thursday. We would hand-feed him pureed fruits and vegetables. He loved mangoes mixed with bananas. You would know when he was full because there was a storage area in the neck called the "crop" - this would start bulging out.
BTW Kerry never stopped needing to be hand-fed. He could have eaten like a normal bird after a few months but he loved the attention lol. Thank you for stopping by!
Oh my this brought smiles, tears, and more smiles, Neela! Animals of all shapes and sizes are so intricate to our lives as we are to theirs. Our latest addition to the family, Gnocchi is not a fan of me, YET. but I will grow on him. I love birds and can watch them for hours. Macaws are incredible.
You will grow on him lol. Gnocchi will come around I'm sure. I know you love parrots too if I'm not mistaken Chason. Thank you so much for taking the time.
I love this story, Neela! Whenever I see and hear birds, I think of you. Birds are such beautiful and unique creatures and I find their chirps quite soothing. :)
Parrots are amazing creatures, they are just way too smart and such emotional beings too. I love my little boy and I can only imagine the heartbreak you must feel everytime you say goodbye to Gigi

I love telling this story. I love all animals but I have a special place in my heart for birds :)
Thank you Mack!

Neela, Kerry and Gigi had the capacity to receive the love you have to give.
There are people who resist love and care. I’m still trying to figure out the “language of love” human being speaks.
I love how you tell stories, Neela. 🤗💗
Humans are complicated. I prefer animals lol - Thank you Salima :)
And thank you for the mention Neela. ✨👏
I love this story of Kerry & Gigi; what absolutely stunning birds! Lets face it, there waa no way Gigi was going to forget you! 🙏
I hoped she didn't. She was a pain in my butt while living in Trinidad. But a good pain :) Thank you so much bro.
Ha ha.. a good pain. You're very welcome Sis!
I wonder if we are all Macaws to you Neela? Just waiting to be rescued and nurtured until we can fly... 🦜
You can be a macaw but you definitely don't need to be rescued. Instead, we can fly together.
Thank you David. I hope you are having a good week :)
The week is always better after reading your newsletter - hope the packing or unpacking is going great for you
I'm all unpacked and starting to settle in. The hardest part is getting back into a social media routine lol. Wish me luck David.
How about I wish you peace and joy instead - I've found them to be longer lasting than luck 🤗💯☕☕

Happy Tuesday!
🦜 Yes, I'm fascinated by parrots and humminbirds.
I love this story, Neela! Whenever I see and hear birds, I think of you. Birds are such beautiful and unique creatures and I find their chirps quite soothing. :)
Is this my legacy? Because I like it.
I miss the birds in our old apartment, but now I have Nicholas the squirrel.
Thank you for taking the time sis ....
What a wonderful story of serendipity, loss and (re) connection. And what gorgeous colours!
They are beautiful birds. Very loving and loyal. Plus they mimic your words and habits. It was hilarious. Thank you for stopping by Lisa!

Hey Sophie
They are so smart 🤓
And they love mimicking our language.
It was heartbreaking and I've never had another pet since :(
I would love hearing about your parrot sometime.
Happy New Week to you ☺️
Thank you for this story
