Prayers needed for my little Ozzie

[Caitie]

2 months ago my little Ozzie, my single female lovebird, started to fall out of her happy hut in the night. We took her right into a board certified avian vet and after blood tests and an xray he said she was very sick with multiple bacteria, fungus and a growth in her abdomen. He gave us antibiotic to give her and an anti fungi but we could see it didn't help her for very long. He didn't give us much hope. We don't know how she got so sick because we are very careful, clean and even give them all bottled water. Her favorite treats are just peas and avi cakes. She could only talk enough to say her name but she twirled on her bong as I clapped and said yeaaaa!  The vet suggested against surgery saying she probably wouldn't survive.
Today shes lying on the bottom of her cage and her eyes are open very little and dying. Ive had her for 7 years and we love her very much. This is so hard to watch but there is nothing we can do but keep  her comfortable and warm. I also tried giving her water with a dropper on the outside of her beak but shes very weak. Just say a prayer that she flys with the others soon we've lost in our avian family. I believe the lion lays with the lamb in heaven so I'm sure they won't hurt her.  I'll miss her so much.  Here's her picture.

Catie, I am so so sorry. I lost a Cockatiel to the same thing. New Year's Eve 4 years ago. Taco kept falling off his perch and just stayed on the bottom....laying next to the light bulb we put next to his cage. He barely was breathing. It was the God awfulist New Years. Right after midnight, he took his last breath. I feel for you and Ozzie. My prayers are definitely with you. It's not easy with any animal. Sorry.

Caitie,

I'm so sorry that Ozzie is so ill.  She is a beautiful Black Masked Lovebird.  I had two Peach Faced Lovebirds named Rocky and Rambo.  They ended up both being female.   

My thoughts are with you and Ozzie.

Ozzie just went to heaven.   Hubby and I are just so broken up over her. She wasn't even hand tamed but she was such a character and the last year she let me pet her head and handle her more.. She also loved to bop to music in sync with us bopping. Came to me for kiss kiss and loved her popsicle sticks she'd carry around and shred. Her companion is Whitey our parakeet. He treated her like his mate. He'll be so sad without her. He knows her name so Im sure he'll be calling her now and I'll

God Bless you all... my dearest friend said she will let me bury her in her yard where she has a little pet cemetary and I can always visit her. We only have a condo so I was worried where I could put her. Your thoughts and prayers are all so appreciated. We get very attached to our lil fur and feathered babies don't we? They are all family to us... You know I saw she was suffering the last 15 minutes of her life so  I took her off the towel I had her resting on and put her back in her favorite place, her happy hut on the floor of the cage, and prayed God would take her and he did minutes later.

  We love them so much, and the parting is so hard.  I believe there is a Heaven for them, and that we will meet them there someday.
I will be praying for your comfort tonight.

Oh Catie, I'm so sorry. There really wasn't much you could do but make Ozzie comfortable. Bless you.

No matter how big or small, with feathers or fur, our pets mean the world to us.  Sorry you had to go through such heartbreak in the last days Caitie.
