Cat by the name of Grover

I believe you are right, I believe these birds flourish in hot climates. I wish I could take him, but he is one that thinks of pets as objects of value first, then pets second. If I could I would take him in a minute, but I would be dragged into court. I love Floyd and I know that if his family finds him mistreating Floyd, one of them will take him and it will be someone that will take care of him I believe. I think though that Floyd may have been hit with a broom as he is afraid of a broom. I don't really know what to do. I do not have a right to take him. I hope and pray, he will be alright. I know my x will not hurt him, and I know he will be fed and tlaked to, but he will never get what i gave to him, I loved him for who he was, not how much he was worth. The family says that they bought him for $3000.00 but I do not see him in dollar signs. He is precious. Because he is hip-hopping, sweet talking, pretty boy Floyd.

Well I don't how anybody can think of a pet bird as just something
that its only value is money, my little Grover is worth much more to me than any amount of money, I put my heart and soul into this little baby, and my heart and soul is not for sale at any price, so that means I could never part with Grover, no! Not for any amount of money. I take care of her and I believe with all my heart she takes care of me too. :) :cool:

:eek::eek: Charlie is SUCH an adorable birdie!!!! AWWWWW! Thanks so much for sharing! :D

Be careful with his around the cat though. I would *never* trust a cat with a bird. Never. Its just not safe enough.

Anathiona, I'm so glad you got to see Floyd, but heartbroken that it seems he isn't being well taken care of. :( I hope someone takes good care of him, and loves him as they should. Poor baby. :(

As for him being afraid of brooms, I don't think that should mean he was hit by one. My birdies are scared to death of brooms and they haven't even ever come near one. They just see me sweeping and get so frightened.

i thankyou for the sweet story of grover . im so glad she was there to help you . may have saved your life ! give her a kiss for being a life saver. :) i have added a new picture of sunny . maybe grover would like to see .:D

Your absolutly right popcorn, I don't trust Grover around Charlie too much, just when I am in the room with them, if I leave the room I either put Charlie back in the cage or put Grover out of the room, Pyewackett, my other cat, now there was a cat I could trust, she would never bother a bird at all, you should have seen her, my birds could just walk all around her and she would just go on sleeping unless they pecked her, then she would just get up and move to another location. I am hoping as Grover gets older that she will realize that Charlie lived here first and she becomes tolerant of her, right now Grover thinks everything is a toy, even me. Seems amazing that all the pets that I'm really close to, are the ones i fed as little babys, Charlie, Grover, and Buffy my little Chihuahua. Here is a picture of Pyewackett and her kittens.
:) :D

oh me ! that is a beautiful sight ! mommy kitty and babies ! thanks for that picture . very sweet !:) here is a picture of my sunny when he was a baby :D

To, Willie,
I feel the same way...loving a pet has absolutely nothing to do with their monetary worth. It is the love they give you and the love you have for them, the smiles and laughter they give you daily and their unique personalities that make them truly valuable to us as pets. The person that holds on to a pet for their value in money is a cold person. These creatures are blessings; gifts from God for us and companions. Your princess Grover is a really special girl. Pyewackett and her babies together made a very sweet picture. I also loved Grover in the attachment at seven months old. Pyewackett is a beautiful kitty with an extraordinary cream color. Thanks for sharing these pictures with us.

To Popcornbird,
I am relieved to hear that it is possible that Floyd was never hurt with a broom. His fear of them made me think that is what had happen to them, but if other birds are afraid of them too, then he probably is just naturally afraid of them like your sweet little birds. Thank you Popcornbird.

My neice just reminded me of a joke I found on the Internet, thought I would share it with all the cat lovers, I bet this sounds like your cats too, because it certainly sounded just like Grover to me. I don't know who the author is, they are unknown to me, but anyway here it is.

This sounds just like Grover!!!!!!!!!!

CAT'S NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS

I will not swat my human's head repeatedly when she's on the family room floor trying to do sit ups.

When my human is typing at the computer, her forearms are *not* a hammock.

Computer and TV screens do not exist to backlight my lovely tail.

I am a walking static generator. My human doesn't need my help installing a new board in her computer.

I will not bring the city police to the front door by stepping on the speaker phone button and then the automatic 911 dial button.

I will not speed dial the overseas numbers.

I will not walk on the keyboard when my human is writing important emiognaierp ga3qi4 taij@3tgv aa35 a=

Now does that sound like your cat buddies too? :) :D

sounds like my sunny . he loves my chair at the computer . if i get up up he ends up in it . i scoot him off , and he gets in my lapp ! he demands the right to that chair !:) here is a baby picture of my sunny .

Sunny has such cute face in his baby picture, they always look like the have so much meaness in them at that age. I love the grown up pictures too, but that little baby face really gets inside my heart. :)

that little kitten in that picture grabed my heart and ran with it . he was such a sweet little baby ! his mother didn't feed her babies well so i took over feeding them boiled eggs and some kitten food . sunny acted like i was mommy ,more than the others did . he would go to sleep in my arms so sweetly while the other little kittens would chose to snuggle their mommy ....... when they were not sleeping ,all the other kittens was always running around the house tearing paper and iterested in everything in the house . sunny was more into being held by me, than to get into things . i kept two of elviras babys and that was sunny and tiffany . and gave the rest to some very nice people . tiffany ate something in the yard that poisoned her when she was a year old and died . it was a sad time .
sunny will be 5yrs old december 23 . sunny has been a very loving little boy . i hope he gets to live a long time . he has met so many close calls with rattle snakes almost died twice ,from bites . the last time he lost some of his hearing ,so he lost his outdoor priviledges . i have added a picture of tiffany and sunny .:)

It was so sad about Tiffany getting into poison. I know that was a painful time for you. Tiffany was with you for a good while before she died? I looked at your attachment and saw that she was a good sized kitty there. Thanks for sharing about Sunny and his feline family. I hope your Sunny will be with you for many years to come.

Willie, Grover has made some of the cutest pictures; what a character! Loved your idea of using the Cat's New Year's Resolution from the internet, I thought it would be perfect for that too when I saw it. Quite often things that would fit here so nicely comes to my email inbox; I know that the other members here at Pet Talk surely enjoyed it.
:) :) amoore and trayi52

I like your new signature treyi52 ! Grover sure is a pretty little kitty . Thankyou for the signature you made for me ,you are good at that ! I have not gotten that good on the computer, with the picture thing yet . I have only had one a few months .I have a good friend that helped me through the ruff edges , she even loaned me one to learn on ! I discovered i really loved having a computer , so i bought my self one . I still have not learned a lot yet . I will keep working on that . Maybe someday ........
Anothiona thank you for the kind words , it was very hard to loose Tiffany Sunny's sister . She was a sweet kitty . I was very saddened by her death . :(

Awwww! Sunny was such a cute baby! Makes me want to go right now and find a pretty Siamese baby for myself. I believe my little April would probably feel betrayed if I did that though. I think she likes having me all to myself. LOL:D I loved that Baby pic of Sunny. Have you thought of doing a thread, "When They Were Babies"? Have one for Dog General for your Tiny and JoJo, and one for Cat General for Sunny and Loverboy? That would be neat, then everyone would share all their baby pics with each other!

:eek: :D I meant to tell you that the signature pic looks great! Trayi52, you are doing a great job! I like that Fushia pink backgound in your signature! Just wanted to let you know that. :)
