I sure am glad that Myrtle got back home FINALLY. I also have to say, that I admire the way this was handled by everyone. I know for a fact, if I had been swetcountrygrl.........I'd have gotten myself in trouble. no doubt. Hopefully, I'll never be faced with anything like this, BUT..if I am, with any luck, I'll remember what's happened here and TRY to handle things in a civil manner. , cause I'm quite sure, if put in the same circumstances, I'd have blown my top big time. I did that once a LONG time ago, with a dog I had. Caused quite a scene, but in the end, I got my dog back.

Definitely "Cars". He can relate to the missing in action plot

Boy, do I ever know that 'look' in her eye

It can mean many things, but none of them lovey-dovey...

Here, she seems to be saying, "Do you want my autograph with that picture, Bub?

Anyway, I'm glad it worked out for both of you...it looks like you've got yourself a real PWA (Pigeon With Attitude )!

Great ending to a very stressful situation.

You guys are awesome for researching the laws and making the contacts you did. My anger would have got in they way and the cops would have probably shown up.

I wonder how many calls the Vet got pertaining to Myrtle. Probably never thought how one pij could be a thorn in their side a deserved thorn at that.

I bet Myrtles a happy camper, Home Sweet Home!

I agree with the others, I wouldn't let her fly in the wild.
