I have a five year old Goffins named Bosco. Last Sat. he was acting strange and he bit me when I let him out of his cage. He bit me so hard it was down through the tendons. My natural reaction was to shake him off and I know that was so wrong it was not intentional. He had never bitten me before not in two years. I saw that he was hurt from the fall and rushed him to the Animal Hospital in Red Bank NJ. Let me preface this by letting you know Bosco is my world I love him more than anything. I would never do anything to hurt him.
This turned out to possibly be a blessing is disguise bc he had an infection. He is on antibiotics now and seemed to be doing much better. I thought he would be coming home soon. Then his bloodwork came back and his phosphorus was very high. we thought he may have Kidney failure from built up toxins in his system. I was devistated I thought he may not make it... I wanted to die I love him soooo much. I stayed in the hospital till 7:00 last night and the bloodwork came back great so THANK GOD. I hope the good news continues and he can come home soon he has been in since Sat.
My question is what can I do to prepare for him to come home. I have already cleaned his cage and put in blankets. I have gotten him extra food and water bowls so he can reach them if he wants to stay on the floor. I want to get him to pellets but all he eats for the most part are sunflower seeds from his seed mix. I give him so much variety and he does not eat most of it. I want to make sur I am doing everything right for him he is my life. I love him so much.
Thanks,
