My 8 year old lovebird died a few days ago.

His name was sherbet but the nicknames include: chicken, rodent, animal, (the) bird, birdhead, mango, weirdo... And because of that, now everything reminds me of him

I held his body in my hand cried for hours. We went to gradma's yard with my brother to burry him, I broke down crying while digging so my little brother finished it for me.

Our home is just too silent without him, I miss him so much

Fly high sherbert

I lost my green cheek a few years back, the silence was so loud. I had never sobbed like that before I lost him

What a beautiful companion, I'm sorry for your loss. Just by how you talk about him I can tell he lived an exceptional life and was very loved. Thank you for sharing, his memory will live on.

I hope you allow yourself to really feel and process this, it's still quite fresh and you had something special.

Birds are great. I used to have one but my landlord asked me to find it a new home. 😟
