She was so special, such a great character, always speaking to me. Mornings she would say 'Here I am', 'water.. food', then 'peanuts'. Then when I left for the day she would say 'you going now? Seeya later', then when I got home in the evenings she would say 'Helloooo bubba' 'Kiss' 'Where's my kiss' and make kissie noises. Then she'd sit on my shoulder, come down to the living room run around the floor saying 'Walk, walk' with me chasing her and her laughing. Then she went into the kitchen where my mother was, she'd sit on her chair in the dining room saying to my Mum 'Muuuuum, where are you' 'Alllloooooo' and do a little whistle my Mum taught her. Then it was bedtime, she's sit on my shoulder, I take her to her room, put her in the cage and cover her cage ready for the night. She come down and eat her food, then climb up to her sleeping perch. I'd turn the light out, she say 'Big kiss.. good girrrrl' and I say 'Night darling', then she reply 'See you in morning'. Aw my little Mads, she's gone, I miss her so much, so so much. The pain I feel is unbearable, I loved Maddie. Rest In Peace my darling BIG kiss xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - Geoff (less info)
