I can't begin to tell you how terribly sorry I am. Fly high Boris & Buddy, you were two dearly loved little boys.

I think I now know what may have happened, the oven has a liner in it (one of those removable black ones) OH put the grill on and left it on for ages. If I use it I put the extractor on and put the birds away, he didn't. The birds were both flying about and I think they have flown around the dining room which attaches to the kitchen and took in all the fumes from the black liner. The inside of the oven door is black with a heavy soot. I wonder if he forgot to turn the grill off. I am not going to accuse him of anything, he is upset enough. He found Buddy first in the middle of the room as though he had dropped mid flight and Boris was laid in the bottom of the cage. Like I say I wasn't here so I can't be sure this theory is correct. If I had of been, maybe things would be different but who knows. Didn't sleep at all.

So, so sorry helenmat. I'm sure your OH is just as devastated especially as he may be at fault. Just a terrible accident. Rest in Peace Boris and Buddy.

I woke up this morning thinking of this tragedy. I feel so sad for you. You are still getting over the loss of Pickle & now you have to cope with this double loss. Sending hugs.

What a terrible terrible thing to happen, helenmat - I can't imagine how devastated you must both be feeling. And I quite understand that you wouldn't want any more birds at the moment. I felt the same when I lost Marshie and Ian in quick succession - but to lose two on one day ... Doesn't bear thinking about ... Thinking of you and your OH.

I am so terribly sorry, Helen. There are no words that I can find to even begin to help you. I have tears pouring down my cheeks right now. What an absolute tragedy for you both. Fly high beautiful boys; know that your were much loved. Can I also add, people who may use them .... those plastic oven bags are lethal as well .... I will start another thread.
