Maglor became suddenly incredibly sick on Monday, and after being rushed to the vet, unfortunately passed away. Given the incredibly short time between his and Celebrimbor's deaths, I am assuming that they were possibly related. Unfortunately, my vet fund has been completely depleted and I cannot even afford to get him cremated right now, let alone get a necropsy done. I know I have been super absent lately, and I'm very sorry about that, but I am kind of a mess right now and I'm not really sure how long it'll be till I come back around.

New hair-do, who dis?

A pigeon found his way into a factory last night and had over half of his wing ripped off when it was caught inside moving machinery. What was left of it was entirely crushed and broken exposed bones up to the shoulder joint.

A factory worker found him, and I managed to pick him up and get him to the vet for a lifesaving emergency wing amputation. He is now recovering at home, and has been named Bucky.

The surgery set me back a little over $1400, which is something I cannot necessarily afford at the moment. I work as a waitress a few days a week, and I can’t pick up extra shifts as I am training a new service dog and he requires hours of my attention every day. The emergency surgery took up about a months worth of my wages and tips.

Any donations at all would help make up for the difference, and be a massive help. Any help in this situation would be deeply appreciated, even if all you can do is share this post.

Thank you everyone who helped with suggestions on immediate and overnight care, veterinary recommendations, and any continued support or donations. I will do my best to keep everybody updated on Bucky’s situation as he recovers.

Finally going to pick up Fresno 😂 😂 😂

Update on stinky baby tiel:

We officially decided to go with Fresno, after asking a bunch of people for opinions. It also matches Moth! (Fresno nightcrawlers, mothman)

Now, we were supposed to be able to bring her home tomorrow at the latest buttttt, someone is a very very picky baby, and they have not been able to wean her on to proper food yet, the only solid food she is willing to eat being eggfood right now, so she's already a little spoiled girl less then 6 months into her life haha. Well hopefully we'll be able to get her soon!

[malleesky]

I swear to god that is the cape accessory that came with the 2003 berry picking fun with butterscotch My Little Pony

[aleksthetiel]

The fact that you know this is incredible haha, that is what it's from!

[aleksthetiel]

You should name the teil crouton

Ohh this is cute! I'll definitely be adding this to the list!

[aleksthetiel]

omg you named your birds after my two favorite silm characters that is amazing lol

Yess I love them too!! Maedhros was going to be named Celegorm actually, but when I found out she had the permanently crippled leg I couldn't not name her Maedhros.

Okay so, I don't think I ever talked about this here, but Moth, who lived with Aleks, was not my tiel, and when I moved he had to stay behind with his owner. Given this, I decided to get another tiel to live with Aleks as he's lived with another bird for most of his life. Im posting this here so I can ask you guys for name suggestions for the baby! It's an albino, not gendered so neutral names would be preferred but I don't mind gendered names either :) the only name I'm considering right now is Fresno, because of the nightcrawlers haha. I'd like to have a name picked out for when I pick it up in six weeks :)

[aleksthetiel]

They're settling in well!
