I DO know how it is, kissing a 'tiel with your nose! That is the only way Snickers would allow it. But...I so miss his smell.
I was just talking to a friend about (at the very least) not having to worry about Bailey outliving me and being left to die. I get that fear. I had it for many years.
I am glad you are okay and I apologize for forgetting you had lost Hurricane, also, this year.
And with your own healing going on, too. Sigh.
You and your flock are in my thoughts and good to hear that Tweets seems to be coming around.
