Chickaboo Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Phoebe has been very ill on and off with sterile peritonitis, when she is very poorly she sleeps in the kitchen over night; I fence off a section and she roosts on the bar of the stool (probably not overly hygenic, but the things you do....). Anyway, she has started to fake illness and perch herself on the stool at convenient times i.e when she has to go back in the run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheaky Beaky Posted December 10, 2009 Author Share Posted December 10, 2009 Aww Poor Pheobe, Hope she gets better soon. I hate it when any of my animals are off colour, They really can't tell you how they feel. Just give her lots of TLC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
