Ain't Nobody Here Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 I always get a tear in my eye when I see pics of all your ex batts with no or few feathers . She looks just fantastic now . Isn't it sad that they end up like the before picture when all it needs is a bit of tlc (well, a lot, and love, and food, and treats, and a nice new home, and a mummy to worry constantly etc, etc . ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 I've just noticed the discretely placed piece of kitchen paper too!! I love the pink phone. Please don't let my daughter see it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 she looks fab and very comfortable! Did she ever get her phonecall or was she screening the sales calls you get from double glazing companies?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillfamily Posted January 17, 2008 Author Share Posted January 17, 2008 (edited) Did she ever get her phonecall or was she screening the sales calls you get from double glazing companies?! she tells them to cluck off Poet - sadly not her favourite towel as all our animal towels are the same It took about 4-5 months for her fully grow back all her feathers The Kitchen roll always comes in handy and saves continous washing of the towels Edited January 17, 2008 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hillfamily Posted January 17, 2008 Author Share Posted January 17, 2008 Yup - she's having her afternoon doze When we first got her she was in need of a lot of tlc so she spent the first 2 weeks in the conservatory and got used to perching on the arms of the chairs She's a bit spoilt but shhhhhh...........don't tell the others Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
