By the time I was born my mom was sick of bigger pets…my older sister had owned a rabbit and a cat….by the time I was born mom only agreed to a budgie and the cat and bunny were ancient history…I remember being baffled where they had gone and why couldn’t we go and get them back!
We had over the years two budgies a green one and a blue/purple one..both called Joey, as mom insisted all budgies were called Joey?!…(despite my aunty having a budgie called Perky.)
Joey was lovely.❣️
Lovely collage of a dear departed feathery pin bundle.
ReplyDeleteA fine tribute to a beloved pet. There was a time every other UK household had a budgie or a canary.
ReplyDeleteWe had a budgie and a cat in same house and even though they were Tweety & Sylvester lookalikes they got on famously!
This is a very lovely tribute to "Joey". I like what you wrote, Hazel, about not knowing where the previous pets had disappeared to. You reminded me of my sister's beloved pet rabbit "Fluffy" who went missing from their outdoor cage and my father probably said Fluffy had opened the latch and run off or some nonsense when, as I think about it, winter was on its way and we could not keep the rabbit in the house, I guess.
