So sorry Marianne. Lucy was dear little budgie. Love to you and George, I hope he doesn't miss her too much. As skysmum said, we have lost a few recently, far too many. Fly high little one.

Thank you everyone, it just came on so suddenly - one day she seemed fine and the next day she was so weak that I knew that just being handled by me or the vet would kill her. She fell to the floor and was so breathless that I just had to leave her be until she recovered her strength enough for me to offer her the playground to stand on (she never obeyed taxi sticks or hands).
I couldn't even keep her in a cage alone to recover becuase even enough she had literally no strength, she would use what little energy she had, to try and find a way out of the cage.
At first I thought it was an iodine deficiency because of the way she held her head, but I am thinking that the lump near her vent must have been more serious than I thought or that she may have had an internal tumour that grew aggressively and hampered her breathing too.
It's just awful uncovering cages to find a dead budgie, I've witnessed it too many times now.
We're still very sad here, but George is a fighter and continues to enjoy life, he's the oldest budgie here at approximately 8 years and 3 months.

Every morning I just lift the edge of the cover and have a quick peek.
Not that BertieB is ill, but as you say, it can happen so quickly.
Hugs x

Oh no, I'm so sorry. Lucy was a beauty, I'm glad she found you and George and therefore happiness. I think you are right about the lump, when it's cancerous it happens so very quickly. Fly high Lucy, say hi to everyone at rainbow Bridge. Hugs Marianne Marlow xx

Oh no! I loved hearing your stories about Lucy, all her antics and getting into trouble with the curtains and such! Goodbye Lucy, fly high with the diamonds in the sky.
