: Last night we arrived home from work around 6:00pm and she was chirping away like always happy that we were home. When I opened the door to her cage she did not jump out like she normally does. She just remained sitting on her perch looking up at me sort of testing me. She was content to have me stand there holding the door open. I thought she was a bit less rambuncious, because usually she will pull up on her doors to let us know she wants out, and she did not do it once last night. About 8:30pm as we watched TV she let out this load unusal sound. I looked over and she was laying all weird. Her head was cocked back and she looked like she was in a lot of pain. I tried to move her a little to make sure she was not stuck on anything or anything on her. She flapped her wings a bit and rolled onto her back. She was breathing but in a lot of pain. We tried to drip some water toward her mouth but she did not even respond to it. Then her legs started shaking fiercely. By then I had called an emergency animal hospital and spoke with them and they advised I rush her in as soon as possible. We covered the cage in a blanket and ran to the car. While driving she started to flail and then suddenly went still. What happened to her? I really need answers. In a matter of less than three hours she went from being perfectly fine to dead. She was about 8-9 months old and this should no0t have happened. She frequently flew around and explored but we always kept an eye on her. Did she have a seizure? A heart attack? Please help me get answers. |
