Thread: Sad day for Andy

My Mate is a Lorikeet. She's had me for sixteen years.
Up here in the north the winters are mild but the Chook
cant take them, she doesn't like the cold weather.
I solved the problem some years ago by providing her
with her own electric blanket !
Her cage is always open and spends most of her time on my shoulder giving me instructions.
Except if it is a bit nippy. Then there is no way she will
move away from her blanket which is folded over the cage !
People tell me she is spoilt but what the hell do they know, eh.

No I'm not politcally correct, Yes I am rude and say what I think..But you need to hear it as Someone needs to motivate you to hang around for your dogs sake..
Whats the DR's say at 240kgs and heart problem the prognosis would not be cheery.
If you got So many dogs do this.
1. When you get up for your wee wee in the morning leash one and walk it for 400 paces (200 out and 200 back)
Lunch time grab another one and do the same
After dinner do the same.
Do this for 14 days and then each week increase the paces by 200.
As for you diet the DR should have covered it.

Keep that up and this time next year you can tell me your a svelt 140kgs running 5kms 3 times a week and trade insults
Good luck dude

Please don't judge too harshly. Have a look at members profiles and you might get to know a bit more about others on this forum.

I'm surprised that more members do not complete profile info.

Is it so much trouble or don't members trust members.

I am not overweight but I cannot even walk for 30 minutes at a time without being stuffed due to my cancer treatment let alone the cancer.

Please be kind to landyfromanuthaland as we don't know the full issues.

I had a lorikeet,spent most of its day hanging upside from one claw tormenting our cat, the only bird Iknow that can poo vertically, funny bird, real funny bird
