Oh no!  I'm so sorry Elizabeth, I know everyone worked really hard and we were always rooting for the little featherbutts; the Universe just seems to do it's own thing, and not the way we would like it to be ~peace, and healing mojo~   :(     Ms.Mary   Promise me that you will always remember, You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. ~ Christopher Robin to Winnie-the-Pooh ~   --- On Mon, 9/27/10, Elizabeth Young wrote: From: Elizabeth Young Subject: [MickaCoo] Very Sad News from MickaCoo To: "General mickaboo discussion" , MickaCoo@mickaboo.org, "Martha Kudlacik" Date: Monday, September 27, 2010, 4:31 PM I'm ever so sorry to have to tell you that dove Piper, beloved mate of Pierre, died last night from complications in her recovery from surgery to correct her deformed legs.  A necropsy is being performed.   Pierre is lonesome but OK. I've been giving him lots of one-on-one time and attention which he wasn't interested in from me when Piper was home but is accepting now. I will be offering him another companion as he is truly the sweetest little bird husband I have ever seen.   I feel really privileged to have been a witness to Pierre and Piper's incredible love affair.  I am heartbroken that it has been so tragically cut short.   You can read more about Piper and see the most recent pictures here.   I know that many of you consider Piper and Pierre dear friends.  Thank you.  And I'm so sorry. -- Elizabeth Until they all have homes, don't buy, don't breed- adopt. www.RescueReport.org www.MickaCoo.org http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGjyooh3Yo0 -----Inline Attachment Follows----- _______________________________________________ MickaCoo mailing list MickaCoo@mickaboo.org https://mickaboo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mickacoo
