Lost my little Tequila last night:(

[Terry57]

Tequila was my little crested Society finch, and he had the sweetest song
There has been something so special about him since we first got him, and removed him from his filthy, tiny cage he was living in with 2 Zebras.
He was between 5 and 6, but I had hoped that by changing his diet and living arrangements for the better that we would have him longer than the year he was with us
My heart breaks today at his loss, but I am glad that we had him for the 11 months we had him, and that he had someone who mourns for him today.
I'll miss you, Tequila - fly free Baby Boy.

Oh I am SO sorry, Terry. Many hugs to you!

Rest easy, Tequila. You were much loved and will be thoroughly missed. Your songs will forever be in your Mama's heart.

Oh, sweet little Tequila. So not fair that his time on earth was cut so short. I'm so sorry, Terry. Hugs to you.

Oh Terry, I am so sorry for your loss.

[Terry57]

Thank you all for your kind words today. I knew that I could share here and you all would understand. I feel so lucky to have you all.

Awww, thank you Beth I would love one, if only we lived closer
You know, I knew that my small guys would not have a chance at living nearly as long as the big ones should, and I knew that a lot of the small ones we got were not young. I thought I had prepared myself for that. I think I just forgot to prepare my heart.
And you are so right, no matter how big, or how small, they work their way right into your heart and leave a huge hole in it when they go.

I'm so glad Tequila got to spend the most important part of his little life with you, Terry! Thank goodness he was able to experience love and the best of care right up until he passed away. Rest in Peace, Tequila: you'll be missed dearly! XX

Terry, I just saw this. I am so so sorry. But you have the right thought (and heart) - maybe you only had him 11 months, but I am sure he would never have traded that time for anything and even the tiniest little one deserves to have someone love them and miss them when they go.

Hugs to both you and Reg for giving Tequila a loving home and making such a difference in his life!

I'm sorry for your loss No matter how small its never easy to lose one of these creatures that become part of our family. He had 11 months being spoiled by you that I'm sure he wouldn't have traded just like my mother said

 

[Sterling1113]

Awww, so sorry to hear for your loss.
Things may be quieter around the house, but I hope you can find comfort knowing he's teaching all the other birdies up in heaven his beautiful song. Sending happy thoughts.

 

[BirdyMomma]

Oh no Terry. I am so very sorry. I'm sure that his last year was the happiest he ever had, and that your love and caring made up for anything he may have experienced before you came into his life.

 

[Mike17]

Sorry for your loss, Terry.

 

[Bundiibird]

RIP little Tequila.

May your loving song live on in the hearts of the mumma and dadda and may you fly free and peaceful for all eternity.

Many hugs to you Terry and Reg. They maybe small but they form such a large part of our hearts. xx
