Trooper, Yes, it certainly sounds as if you were given the perfect name. It brought tears to my eyes to read how you were treated in the pet store due to ignorance & probably they didnt really care. Any idiot could look & most likely see that your feet were deformed & that you had trouble standing on a perch.

Now to your present home, how lucky for you that a caring knowledgeable person saw you & in fact rescued you. I hope all of you have many years together. There is no doubt but that you are now loved, cared for, & happy. Congrats...You deserve to be POTD! Kay in NC
