The new arrival came today. Lorie. She is the sweetest 10-year-old girl….but….she is blind. I’m not even sure her owners knew this. One thing is for sure they loved her and cried when they left her with me.
If an African Grey is acclimated to their cage and surrounding you might not know or notice something isn’t right. They kept telling me ‘she is scared’. No, those big eyes are not full of fear they are without vision.
Lorie doesn’t turn her head towards movements. She does not look at objects. She searches for things with an open beak. If she hears a noise she turns her head towards the noise. She can even be touched and doesn’t know that you are going to touch her. No wonder she is a feather plucker. She breaks my heart.
Lorie will be here forever. With time, trust, and patience I hope to make her world a happier, safer place in which she will thrive.
It’s going to be ok Lorie you are home now.
The owners of Lorie did donate NIS200 about $56 that will be saved towards the HEPA filter that’s needed for the bird-room. The HEPA filter is $245. Please consider donating and share this post. Thank you for caring.
