Unhappy

Very sad news....the vet called me today to say that the little guy took a turn for the worse. He wouldn't eat and was very malnourished. Today he was lying on his side with his eyes closed. He had very green poo (I noticed that too) and he looked like he was suffering. The vet said she had to euthanize him. I am so sad...I really hoped he would make it. But I was very impressed with the vet. She thanked me for bringing him in and was sorry he didn't make it. I really believe they did try. She said at least in his last days, he was warm and comfortable. We gave him a chance that he wouldn't have had if just left out on the street where I found him. In that I take some comfort, and the fact that he isn't in pain. But, I'll miss that little guy.

I'm so sorry Debadoo. It sounds like you did find a very good vet and if Gail N. recommended the vet, then I know tis so. You did everything you could, and bless you for that. Thank you for all you did, and if you get the opportunity, please thank the vet also. Again, I am very sorry there wasn't a happy outcome here.

You did a wonderful thing.


Hello there Debbie, this is J.C. Gregg's little sister.
I just wanted to say, you did all the right things and the little guy had everything he needed to go in peace.
And I'm sure he is in Pigeon Heaven watching over you.
Thanks for being so kind.
Many people would have just walked past leaving it for the unknown.
Please feel free to return here if you should ever have any pigeon questions, this is a wonderful site.
