# haha - you can't have too many bald Garys...
TJ: A budgie flew into our window with a bang just now, so we let him in and fed him.

Here he is, looking wistfully back out of the window at what could have been...
He's OUR PET NOW. (At least until the RSPCA come to collect him tomorrow) He was cold and hungry, but much better now.

# he seems tickety boo
- he's been guzzling seeds and happily sitting on my shoulder. He's very tame. In fact, budgies are a lot more fun than I realised.

# Yeah , but we've got a cat...

# It's very very tempting. He's got a lot of personality for a bird, I'm genuinely taken with him.
But what about the cat?

# Ah, perhaps that does present a problem.
I've got absolutely no personal experience of keeping a bird, I just thought it sounded as if it was 'meant to be'.

# haha - yeah, it does seem to be fate.
I even checked it out on-line, and some people keeps bird and cats, just in separate rooms.
Dammit, I may have just talked myself into keeping that budgie...

They're very sociable.

# Little budgie sized BMX stunt bikes.....
Sliding down the arm of the sofa and bouncing of the lamp shade... always just out of reach of the cat.... just like Tom and Jerry but in really life......

# When he can do a triple back flip, get back to us. Links board, preferably.
I have to say, I found your bird story to be tragic. He's dreaming about his great great great great great great grandparents who lived in the forest. Now it's sitting on a window sill.

You're probably the best suited of anyone to care for him/her. I want reports back over the years about how happy your bird has become.

# Aw...thanks. I know what you mean.
I'd rather he was flying free, but he's so tame I've a feeling he wouldn't last long.

Here's a picture of him looking a bit less forlorn to cheer you up:

# YAYS
That is great!

But he's never going to dominate the planet if he's super fat. :)

# haha - he does look really overweight in that photo.
I think he's just all fluffed up and contented.

note: I am not a budgie expert - he may be overeating until he explodes.
