[sparky]

BTFL, no one has called me Sparko since Moony dubbed me Sparko Darko. That warms my grinchy heart.

I gave Banjo some beak rubs for everyone.

I did not take him to the vet today. He had a pretty good day, and I found another vet that has been recommended by everyone and their cockatoo, even though he is 40 miles away. The vet I was gonna go to...it's along story. I saw a fill in guy, and she (the regular vet) is back Monday. So, I may start over with another. He has seen lots of Parrotlets, and was recommended by a local Parrotlet breeder as well. The little guy does not seem to be in a crisis. He is only bad at night, so I think another night will be okay. I really don't think the Cipro is working for him. The blood test just freaks me out - it's the kind of thing he may not live through. But then again, since he is sick every night, he clearly might not live through that either. Either way, it is good to see him so lively, climbing around, eating, and acting pretty normal. And everyone's good wishes sure help too.

More to come.
