So yesterday I went to look after my neighbours parrot, and I don't get along with birds. They are out for a few days, and they said I could stay in their house...because this parrot is a rare breed and their prized possession. This is when I hit the problem. A fed it a bit of a fugecicle, and its beak got stuck together. I tried to pry it open, but the beak began to make this weird noise so I left it. After a while, I sprayed the parrot with water from a hose - to stop it sticking. But this only sent the parrot flying backwards - and it swatted against the cage. I picked it up, it was unconcious. After coming back from the vet, I put it back in its cage, and went to bed. The next morning I woke up, went down stairs.. and it was... well... dead. I thought it was sleeping, but after a while of complete stillness I took it to the vet. He said it died from its heart exploding. I thought back to the traumatising events of yesterday and slapped myself on the head. My neighbours are coming back next in a few days - so should I tell them I killed their 'child' - (she calls it that mainly because of her infertitlity) - or buy a new one and pretend I knew nothing about it. Or maybe buy another one, pretend I'm a parrot genius, and said 'it shed its feathers'. I need help or I'm gonna get in alot of trouble. :( [Edited on 03.17.2008 11:05 AM PDT]
