We lost our two beloved finches - Rosy and Pinky few days back (my mom's finches). They had been playing, hopping around, happy, eating and healthy poops.. The next day they both settled down at the cage bottom near the heat lamp.. It was that instant we knew it's too late.
I'm out of words with their loss.. My mom is distressed too. We both felt that we shouldn't have pet birdies at home, after loosing the finches. It's painful to part with them and esp when you don't know why did it happen and without medical facilities..
We want to remember both of them for the happy memories, but we can't forget their last moments. It just brings tears to our eyes. There was no vet hospital or doctor around.. though we knew online consultation wasn't going to help, we did go for it. Rosy gave up on food and passed away the next morning..but pinky kept trying to eat and hopped around on the cage bottom. So we broke down the seeds into smaller pieces and tried hand feeding pinky liquid diet, honey water every 15 to 30 minutes and antibiotics.. but we just prolonged life for a day.. This is my first experience of a birdie loss and it feels terrible. It has been a few days, still it feels really terrible.
My mom had the finches for past 3 years..it must have been so hard for her to part. I have never seen her cry, but she broke down with Pinky's departure.
We had kept the budgies and finches in separate room once we saw them on cage bottom. Unfortunately, two of my mom's budgies have abnormal poops and Breezie too at the moment, when I'm away for the wedding where I can't express my grief. Being away at such time is stressful.. With the loss of such pretty small birdies, I feel weird to advise anyone anything about birdies, feeling guilty about not being able to save them.. at this moment, everything feels meaningless.. I couldn't gather the strength to accompany my mom and dad to bury both of them. They buried them with their favorite mud hut and favorite seeds.. It feels weird to look at their empty cage, toys and perches..
I hope our beloved finchy must be hopping and playing around in another world..
