Quick Visit

 I took a parakeet to the vet this morning expecting to drop him off for a recheck.

As we'd taken this parakeet in a little over a month ago to get his nose looked at. As the nair--nostril was looking...well deformed. 

Which the vet confirmed it was deformed and that the bird would be more prone to respiratory infections and would be best if he had access to water to bathe in constantly and to have a weekly misting as well just to help the bird stay cleaner as he'd been looking a bit more oily. 

In any case.

It was any easy enough "here's the solution adopt him out." situation.

Except the vet had also taken a stool sample and while they didn't find anything specifically wrong in it they were concerned about the consistency of it and therefore wanted us to wait a month and bring the parakeet back in for a recheck on the stool just to make sure he was healthy.

Hence my visit today.

So I came in expecting to drop the bird off and leave and then come back a few hours later to drop him off.

That didn't happen.

Instead after about 15 minutes of waiting to be seen. The vet himself came out into the waiting room to look at the parakeet. 

He was like "Oh the nair looks good. The vent looks good. The stool in the cage looks like it's all good. Have you noticed any issues? No? Cool. You're good to go. Bye!" lol. 

I mean I don't mind quick vet visits. 

It's rather nice to have a quick visit where we don't have to plan time out later in the day to go get the bird again after the vet checks on it. 

So it's nice to just show up and get the bird looked at real quick and then be back on my merry way.

Now to get said bird adopted out to a loving home. 

Until you next find these words;
I'll be watching the leaves.
Enjoy the day!
