This is a tribute to my beloved blue
baby boy Jibijip, who was such a loving
and affectionate little budgie.
Sadly he passed away and was buried
on Tuesday the 17th of June, 2008.
He passed on so suddenly
and so unexpectedly.
I tried absolutely everything within
my power to save him, but it was
my cute baby's sad fate that he had to
go to the hereafter.
He was so sick from the first day I
got him, I made him better in one
month and he was so full of energy
after he got better.
Two months later he got ill again but
recovered, but 4 months after that -
the third time, he wasn't so lucky.
By that time the illness had spread
too much for anything to be done for
my poor Jibijip.
He wasn't able to fly or walk properly,
everytime he tried to fly he would fall
down so fast, I had to quickly catch him
so he wouldn't hurt himself.
Two days before he died, I stayed up
for two whole days to make sure he was
warm, had enough air, and the room
was humid enough for him to breath.
And to make sure he slept and was able
to eat and drink when he woke up.
The week before that, I slept every
other day to watch over him.
But the day he died, I was so tired I
went to sleep at 1PM, then when I woke
up at 5PM, I found my poor baby lying
on his back near his food at the bottom
of the cage.
There was no sign of any big struggle,
his wings were closed but his toe on his
left foot was bent, and he wasn't
breathing nor was his heart beating,
he was cold and hard like a rock.
I immediately started crying so hard
when I looked into his lifeless eyes.
I cried so much because he died with
his eyes open, I couldn't bare seeing
him so I went out the room and phoned
my mum, when I went back to see my baby
again his eyes had closed on its own.
My parents say that he was longing for
someone thats why he died with his eyes
open, and when he finally saw that
person even after death and the person
cried for him, the angels closed
his eyes.
The times he slept I kept searching
on the Internet to find him a cure, I
even ordered Ornacycline from
America which is antibiotics for the
intestines and breathing system, but
shockingly they arrived one day after
he died.
But everyone I talked to about it said
it was already too late for him.
Even the vets said that, 3 days into
his illness I went to my nearest RSPCA
vets in London, they said he would
probably have to be killed. It took me
and my dad 5 hours just to find the place,
we went there to find a cure and instead
they tell us he'll be killed. So I knew
taking him to that vet wasn't an option.
I had an appointment at an avian vet
the day my dear Jibijip died, but I
didn't go because I felt in my heart
he was going to die that day, and I
didn't want him to die on the way
to the vet.
I would never have let them kill my baby.
I don't think he would've wanted to be
killed either, when he was sick he
would always snuggle up against my arm
and leg, and face when I was lying
down, he showed me so much affection
when he was ill, like he was trying to
tell me thank you and good bye, and to
spend his last days with me. He also
showed Jijik his mate so much love, he
would always snuggle up against her in
the cage, I'm so glad that I seperated
them the day he was gonna die, and
spared his mate Jijik the horror of his
death. Until this day, she still
doesn't know he died. He even showed my
parents so much love even though he
never went to them before, he was
telling us thank you, and I love you,
and good bye, you took good care of me
and I'll never forget you. I'm pretty
sure he wanted to live as long as
possible and spend his last moments
with us, he didn't show any signs of
suffering during his illness, like
screaming and shouting, he was patient
throughout the whole thing, and when he
died, I think he died a suddern death
with only a brief moment of pain.
I'll never forget you my beautiful blue
baby boy, my dearest budgie,
I'll always love you, and wait to see you
again some day, in the hereafter. Rest
in peace my dear sweet baby Jibijip.
You're flying with the angels now, I
hope to see you in heaven some day. It
was definately something to do with his
intestines, when he first died I
thought he died of cancer tumours in
his digestive system. But after doing
more research and consulting experts, I
found out that he most likely died of a
deadly disease known as Megabacteria
which a large number of birds die of
even in the wild. You may have a chance
to save the bird if you give the bird
MEGABAC-S, but you have to notice the
illness really early and by the time
you notice the first symptoms, it's
probably already too late because
budgies hide their illnesses naturally
in the wild to protect themselves from
predators, so if your budgie looks like
he's sick, he really is sick.
