It is with great sadness that I report the passing of our very, dear friend, Perry. He died in the early hours of this morning. I found him laying peacefully at the bottom of the cage. All was well the previous evening. Our hearts are broken. Perry was as near perfect as you can get. He got on with everyone. Everyone loved him. He was easy-going. There was no drama with Perry (even during times of crisis, he still remained low-key). He had no complaints & demanded nothing, even through all his health issues. Perry was open-hearted & free with his love & friendship, with no ill-will towards anyone. It was an honour to know him. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank those of you who supported myself & Perry through his various health issues. It was very much appreciated. I feel very much at a loss now, after devoting so much time & energy to Perry's care. Fortunately I have Lennie & Moriarty to focus on.

Such a beautiful picture and tribute to Perry. He was a handsome fellow indeed. Although he is gone now, it was lovely that he was in your life and with your other budgies.

So sorry that Perry passed on.
It's hard when dealing with a pet with a long term illness and they suddenly pass. The whole routine changes and it does leave a huge empty space.
I like to think Perry is reunited with Dalai. I also like to think he can meet up with my dearly departed budgies, there are many of them.
Fly high Perry, you are a special boy.

I’m very sad to be reading this thread, and so sorry for your loss. Perry sounds like the perfect gentleman and a wonderful cage mate to all who shared with him. He certainly had his struggles but between the two of you, you were able to give him at least some relief and comfort, and a more enjoyable life than he would have had otherwise. Rest in peace, Perry. You will be very much missed. Xx

It hurt to read of your loss, Sweetpea. It felt like a blow. Perry was a very sweet and lovable budgie and a very handsome boy. You and Lennie and Moriarty will be a comfort to each other, I know. And Perry has earned a blissful and happy eternal rest. I too hope he can meet up with former friends and other beloved budgies who have likewise passed on.

I'm so sorry that Perry has left you. He really was a special boy and that's a beautiful picture of him. It makes the bond even closer when a little friend needs extra special care and it's doubly hard to say goodbye. You took amazing care of Perry and kept him safe and happy. Take care of yourself. Hugs xx

I wanted to share the last video taken of Perry, a week before he died:
He was like this on the last day too. Despite all his health issues, he still found moments to be lively.

He was very lively in that video. Having a good play with Moriarty! A lesson to us all... don't let a huge, festering, decomposing wound on your belly get you down... Just keep calm & carry on flirting...
