Current mood:

relieved

woah!
it's been such a long time since i posted anything but what the hay right? :)

i have three birds, pippin, merry and rose. recently i added a dog to my family [i'm sorry i'm an animal-lover like you wouldn't believe!]. my dog had been abused in the past and didn't get along with anybody but for some reason, he and my birds became really good buddies [perhaps it's because i rescued my birdies too!] pippin would even crawl on his back to sleep [don't worry! my dog is so good-natured that he wouldn't bite him].
this morning i woke up to the sound of my dog whining like he was hurt. he came up to my bed, jumped up and started nudging me and then ran off to the direction of my birds' cage. as soon as i woke up and got out of bed to check on my dog, he turned his head to my bird cage.
there was pippin on the floor of his cage all puffed up and his feather looked like it had a fair bit of blood on it. apparently pippin must've had a night-fright which i didn't hear since i was dead asleep and he lost one or two feathers.
i took a styptic pencil and made sure that the wounds didn't bleed anymore and i'm taking him to the vet.
but wow! what a close call aye? if it wasn't for my dog who befriended my friendly birdies, i might have lost pippin!!!
hurray for animals looking out for one another!
