Endangered Species Day

The third Friday in May is Endangered Species Day. It is a day to learn about and take action to protect threatened and endangered species. In honor of this day, Cooper is donating to Kākāpō Recovery.

Kākāpō Recovery combines the efforts of scientists, rangers, volunteers and donors to protect the critically endangered kākāpō. Sadly, there are only 199 kākāpō alive today.

If you would like to help out, you can donate here.

Cooper hopes that one day there will be no need for an Endangered Species Day.

Sunny in Stitches

Look what arrived in the mail!
This wonderful cross stitch of Sunny by our friend Kelle (her shop is BitchingStitch on Etsy).

It captures her sunny good looks – from her sweet expression to her sunshine sky blue and yellow coloring.

Sunny has been having some health issues recently so this beautiful cross stitch portrait cheered her up (and her humans, too).
Thank you so much Kelle for this fantastic gift. We love you!

Birthday Budgie

Look who is 11(ish)!

Here’s the hatchday girl with her present.

And here she is celebrating with millet.

Sunny has had a tough couple of weeks. She’s had two vet visits, one to have fluid withdrawn from her abdomen and one due to vomiting and listlessness. She is doing much better and is just now finishing up a course of antibiotics. Until she is in the clear, she is hanging out in her condo. So no having to share her millet and toys : ).
Happy hatchday Sunnybuns – we love you!
