It's with much sadness that I report the passing of my little King Monty this morning at 10.15am. He had not been active for the past few months, we took him to the vet, bought a UVA/UVB light for the birds, he had various medications and we spent lots of time with him. Covered all angles. In the end it was a tumour that took him, this seems to happen so often He passed away in my hand this morning. We will miss you little fella, you had a big personality.

oh that's so sad, bless him. He was beautiful. We lost our first budgie, Basil to a tumour, had to have her put down, so upsetting, I cried for days. Hope you find some comfort. xx

Thank you Kaye Monty was a special little guy. I'm sure he's up "there" playing with Basil right now.

Rest in Peace, sweet handsome Monty. You were a special friend to all of us, and we will miss the stories of your antics. You will live on forever in our hearts. Marianne, I am so sorry for your loss. They do leave us much too soon.

Sorry to hear Marianne. Thankfully he had all the cares and you were there when he passed away, which is a comfort.

Yes, this forum is great.
When I explain to my NZ farming friends who shoot oppossums and trap weazels that I've lost a bird, they look at me like I'm crazy! Rosellas are a real pest here, introduced from Australia, and as one cannot eat budgies, why keep them??? I know, slight exaggeration, but still. I feel quite at home at this forum, and am glad others feel the same.

They have such personalities. People that do not spend time with budgies just don't get it.

So sorry. Such a loss. I wonder if he has met up with his long-lost pal Eric? It would be nice to think they are catching up over a field or two of millet.
