Roxanne's Twinkie
Sweet Twinkie, a Spectacled parrotlet, was my first ever bird. In addition to having to learn about birds, I had to learn about living with a parrotlet who had seizures.
For awhile she lived in an aquarium, but became very depressed. It was then I had to make a decision to move her back into her cage and give her some happiness, although resking severe injury from her having a seizure there.
I feel she did live out her short life in happiness - playing with toys, eating some of her favorite foods, and teaching me about how special these little ones are.
With love to my sweet Twinkie girl,
Roxanne
