Just to add to Perry's burdens, Moriarty pooped on his head. The poop fell off before I could take a photo. I'm not laughing at this, I am not, I promise. |

You know the saying "when it rains, it pours"? Poor little Perry seems to be getting the worse of it all.

“Adding insult to injury” would be appropriate for that scenario

Here we go......................
...................
.............................
First blood loss. 19:30. Blood on perch in two places. Suspect that's it for that bit. Last time there were 3 separate blood loss incidents, so this is likely not the end. Managed to clean one area of blood (he's sitting on the other bit) so it's easier to monitor further blood loss. He was actually eating millet when I noticed the blood loss so he's relatively ok so far. Right now he's preening.
Switched his water to GA.
So, now I am checking on him every minute....

Poor boy, and you  . I had this journey with my Teddy so feel for you. I was just comparing a pic i have of him and we had the same area higher up which kept bleeding and scabbing over then rinse and repeat, he lived until he was 12 and had the lymphoma for a good couple of years or more. |

I didn't know Teddy had something similar. What a little soldier he was! Did you do anything for it, or just let it sort itself out naturally? I feel better for knowing another budgie has coped with this - thanks for sharing. |

While not a relief for sweetpea, I’m sure, I know I’d feel better (slightly) knowing that my situation wasn’t completely unwinable. |

Not having a good night... even though Perry is up-to-date with his anti-seizure medication, he's had two seizures tonight, at 22:30 & 00:30.  On the plus side (  ) his falls & flapping about haven't triggered any more blood loss. EDIT: Another seizure at 01:47.  |

All is well (in Perry terms) this morning.
He's eating, drinking & has had his obligatory morning flirt with Moriarty. Only had about 60% of his morning meds though. Judging by poop patterns, I suspect he had another seizure during the night. Vet visit booked for Monday.

Thank goodness Perry is still with us. I hope for a positive and helpful vet visit on Monday.
