Rocket isn't well again

[popcornbird]

Oh no!

Do you live in a big city? I don't see how its possible that an avian vet would be so far away unless you lived in like some village. We have avian vets in every animal hospital here. They are different from exotic vets.

I'm very sorry this is happening to Rocket again. I wished you had taken him to the vet last time, but I guess it wasn't meant to be. Your mom is mistakened about vets not being able to do anything to help birds. Birds are the 3rd most popular pet after dogs and cats and vets help them every single day. Avian vets don't study birds for years for nothing.

Honestly, I do not believe Rocket's leg was injured. Its seems to be something else, and if it has showed up again, he needs medical attention. Dear Rocket, please make it through this for your mommy. Your mommy loves you. Primabella, please take him to the vet no matter where the vet may be. I suggest going on the web and searching for *avian vets* in your area. You might be able to locate some closer ones.

Ps. I know its not your fault that your birds aren't allowed out of the cage, and I'm not blaming you in ANY way. What was meant to happen was meant to happen and there's nothing anyone can do about it. I just want to say that PLEASE, I really really hope this will help your mom realize how IMPORTANT it is for birds to get out of the cage time. Its terrible for their health to be locked in a cage for life, and no animal was born to live its life in a little cage. Staying caged all the time can take a dramatic toll on their health. They need their exercise. Your birdies are still so very young. Please start allowing your birds out of the cage so they can get the exercise they need. You are a wonderful pet mommy and I know you will do the best you can for your birds. Get well soon Rocket. I'm praying for you little keet.
