ive made so manny mistakes here.   

Dizzy

Hi there. It's Little Miss Stevie's owner here.  I thought to let you guys out there know that she's not well at the moment.  Last night, sometime, she fell ill and had a possible stroke and isn't really feeling up to posting anything for a while. 

I found this out this morning when I took out of her cage and let her fly around and she dropped to the floor instead.  Then, when I found her, she was walking around in circles with her head off to one side. The vets at Greencross Vets told me it was something that could have happened during the night when I was sleeping.

Right now, all I can do is keep her nice and cool, protect her from overbalancing and stop her from flying too much.   I'll pass on any notes or well-wishes you want to leave below in her comments box... but really, all she wants to do is sleep right now.  At least she's not falling off her perch from doing that or preening - and this is a good sign of her balance coming back.  All I can do is watch her and wait and see what happens.
You see, I bought her from a petstore and so I don't know where breeding or bloodlines.  I wish I did, but I don't; and this plays a vital role in how long she'd live for.  

Anyway, I thought to let you all know just in case you don't hear from her for a while.    

Oh! Boy! Feeling better!

wow! i'm feeling so much betta now. last night i ate all my food andkept on eating until late in the night! there was something about the shellgrit mum gave me yestaday that has helpt me feel hungry again. and my poo doesnt stick my fethas anymore and its not gooey and smelling and gross anymore eetha.

mum has been checking me and cuddling me a lot too. she has noticed my fethas are nice and flufly again and not as oily as thye were befor. when she gave me the shellgrit again jumt on her hand ate lots of it today. so good when i feel like eating.

Runny Poos and Feeling Tired

i have been feeling tired and have been horribl poops sticking to my fethers. this isnt fun. mum has had to cleen my bum with wet tissues and that makes my bum cold.  today she got out my budgie book she bought me a few years ago and read that i shoud be eating shellgrit. she brawght out my big bottle of it and gave me some.

Wow! i didnt know i missed it so much until i ate some! its so yummy! she said she would let me have more tomorrow. but i'm feeling better now. 

its so good she thauwht of this. i cant wait until tomorrow.  

Moulting Time

Mum is worryed about me. i'm moulting and am very quiet but then a lot of my fethers are coming out and i feel very quiet when that happens. shes been feedng me and making me feel good by talking to me and thats nice but all i want to do is sleep most of the time.

i'm so tired. i hope this fether changing thingy doesnt take long. i don't like having mum wory too much. she is such a good human and likes being around me and i like her a lot too.

Lost Fethas

Its almost Winta and i have been gettting rid of my summa fethas to let my Winta ones come through.  Mum thinks its funny when I fluff up and four or fife fethas fall off me. then theres all the feathers that come off me during the day. she is really cool about it all and lets me fly around so i can get rid of some while i fly.

she told me today its going to get a lot colder and it going to rain tomorrow. i'm glad my fethas are here to keep me warm and mum is too.

Check-up Soon

Next week I think Mum is going to take me to the vet to have me looked at. i'm not sick or anything but each year since i turned 5 i need to be looked at to make sure i'm well. 

last year she wasnt happy about how i was treated. this year Mum will make sure i will have my normal vet and she will be happy about it. she has been looking after me better this year than last year. but when i was there last year the new vet we had wrapt me in a towel and i dont like towels and my leg was hurt. it still hurts some days but Mum is good about me. she loves me and cared for me when that happend. i hope we get my usual vet back becawse shes nice.

Sore Head

a few days ago Mum noticed my head was bleeding. silly me I scratched it hard and made it bleed. so she put some cold water on it and with a cotton bud in the bathroom. wow! that was cold! but then, she got some salt water because it didnt stop bleeding, and it really hurt my head. she got really worried and quiet. the light hurt my eyes for while and she held me close.

I'm okay now. my head still hurts a bit, but its better. its not bleeding anymore and Mum clipped my toenails. She thinks its because I'm moulting and the tips on my feathers are making me itch. she is so good to me. she even checked my head today and my head is still red and sore but not bleeding.

Hot Day and Sore Eye

I'm moulting and I find this itchy. sometimes when I scratch I get myself in the eye and this year isnt any different. I did that and Mum noticed. when i first did it, she panicked and tried to put some water through it but I didnt like that. so the next time she saw me like this, sheleft me alone and just rubbed around my eye so that i didnt have to scratch and it felt good.

today she did something fun and sprayed me with water to cool me off from the really hot day and some of the water got into my eye and made it feel beter. i love my Mum!

My Eye!

My eye is sore. I've been scratching around and getting dander off me and I scratched my right eye, now it hurts. Yestaday, I had it closed for along time. Mum got a big plastic thing and washed it out. I hated that but it felt better.

Today,I can open it, but it still feels a bit sore. I hope it gets better soon.

Mum looked up what can happen to my eyes in the budgie book she has about me and isn't worried enough to take me to Greencross Vet. She's good to me and has been giving me lots of cuddles so I feel better.
