1095 days of Alfie

Posted on July 2, 2016 by Michelle M.

Three years ago, today, I brought home a cardboard box from the animal shelter. I had no idea what the budgie inside looked like – he was in a back room of the shelter and I took him home sight unseen. Imagine how thrilled I was when I saw this cute little fellow inside.

(7/2/13)(7/2/14)(7/2/15)(today)Alfie is our little clown. He loves food (lettuce is still a favorite) and is usually the last one to finish eating He doesn’t have a girlfriend (I can’t imagine why none of the girls have gone for him), so he makes do with his bell. He likes to run around on the floor (probably looking for stray seeds), but is a very good flier. He is very chatty, and has long, intense conversations with the bird in the mirror, toys or even the wall. I think his favorite thing to do is bathe. This little guy loves a good bath – complete with spritzing. You can always count on Alfie to put a smile on your face. Happy anniversary Alfie – we love you!

Freedom!

Last week Cooper went to the vet. She was limping and pulling up her foot. The vet thinks she pulled something and gave her some pain meds. She’s fine now, thank goodness. While she was there, he took off her leg band. While Cooper looks a little naked without her band, it must be nice to have it off.

We don’t always get Cooper’s photos right on the first shot*. Here are some pics that didn’t make the cut.* Due to the photographer and through no fault of the model, of course.
