I miss her. So much. I had a dream about her last night. And now I feel like I lost her all over again. I miss her eating my hands. I miss her "I'm pooping dance," I miss her hanging upside down on the cage when she got curious of something. She learned how to open the cage door, but never how to hold it open to escape. I want my trouble maker back home with me. People their budgies for years, and I only got a few months with her. She left so suddenly, and she left behind so much...

Be safe on your final journey my little adventurer.

Well, you miss her, honey; it was a terrible loss. It strikes me that the dream, painful as it was, is part of the grieving process, and slowly but surely you're working through the sadness... It may take a long time.

That mirror photo is utterly adorable and a wonderful memento for you.

Maybe, when you're ready, you might think about another keet/budgie? You seem like a great birdy parent, and could offer love and a good home to another budgie. Take time to heal, though.

mind i ask what happened to her?

Aww gustafason Of course you miss her. You loved her very much..she had become big part of your life.
I LOVE that pic.What a beautiful little lady she was.I see the tinkertoys in the background...kind of chokes me up. I remember when you built things for her
Try to remember the good times and the sadness and grief you are feeling will fade in time. You will never forget her but it will get easier.
Like P&R said..maybe someday you will get another. Sonya came in to your life and opened your heart to the world of keets. It was her time to go but she def left her mark on the world in you

I know how to feel. We get so attached to these little guys. I had one that left a special mark on my heart. I really want him back. Its a great photo of her and like kksuns said it would eventually get easier. Take time to heal like P & R mom said and maybe later you can open your heart to another keet. Sorry for your loss.

She had a buddy. Meeko, and she's never spent a day alone. So we had to get another baby. Mooshi. They keep me going on the bad days. Her passing gave me the opportunity to save another. That helps too. But neither have the personality Sonya did. She was a fire cracker. And so conceited. lol. She never passed a long glance in a mirror.

We don't know why. She had been having some problems staying warm with the weather changing. But we bought her a heater and she perked up after that and was fine. And then one night she just decided it was time.

aww feel better gus
