What did the grey do to kill the poor keet??

The keet flew to his cage. Which happened 2 years ago. The gray doesn't love keets, or chickens, or the mecaw.

That's really sad That poor poor keety poo.....

I punished him by takin his Pick-a-peanut toy.

The fumes are meant to kill living creatures, they can kill a parakeet in a few seconds. You really need to realize that you are responsible for a living creature and if it involves a fee to keep him alive, that's your duty as the owner. Keets are not disposable toys!

You made it sound like I was unwilling to pay the fee. The thing is, this keet was a suprise gift, and I dont have lots of money to spend on him.

Trust me, if I had the money, I would be more than willing to board him somewhere for a few days just until the fumes cleared up. But, money is tight right now, even with my parents because my brother is at UT and that is the most expensive college in texas.

I talked to my boyfriend and his family and they said they do not mind holding onto him for a few days. They will keep him separate from the parrots, which have their own aviary.

Thanks for your replies

Lisa, that was pretty harsh! She wasn't refusing to care for her keet or anything. You need to be a little less hurtful. Think about things before you say them.

If he's in his own cage he should be safe with the other birds. Perhaps covering his cage partially will stop him from being too frightened.

What about leaving him with your parents? Even the local vet may take him for a few days for a very minimal fee. I spoke to my daughter who's a vet nurse and she said that if he's in his own cage and you left his food, they'd do it for nothing.
