Thank you @sinkothesunconure for nominating me to share the story behind my name! 💛 I actually have a name and a nickname! My name Kiki was chosen purely because my mom liked it and it was sweet and cute, just like me! My nickname, Puffie, was given to me because of how I puff my feathers up when I’m happy! I now nominate @riki_tiki_theringnecks to share the story behind your names! 🙂 #kiki #psittaculakrameri #petsofinstagram #bird #parrot #indianringneck #littleyellowfeathers #cute #yellow #pet #feathers

My humans are really spoiling me since I've had my surgery! I get treated like the true princess I am! 👑 I'm feeling a lot better today 🙂 Oddly, my humans are even happy to hear me screaming again 😂 #kiki #psittaculakrameri #petsofinstagram #bird #parrot #indianringneck #littleyellowfeathers #cute #yellow #pet #feathers

Our Wingdow seats arrived! We're having the best day ever! 😍🙌🏻 . For anyone with parrots I can't recommend anything more than this product! They're costly but their quality is impeccable. Kiki immediately LOVED it, and it didn't take Zazu long to fall in love with his. They hold all the mess and can double as table-top stands as well. The cups just slide in and out and are super easy to clean. They come with toy and millet holders. It's literally like they were made by birds, they are so well-designed. #kiki #zazu #psittaculakrameri #petsofinstagram #bird #parrot #indianringneck #littleyellowfeathers #cute #yellow #pet #feathers

I've been feeling so awful after the vet's visit today. Vet said I'm the most stubborn birdy she's ever met 😂 Mommy let me sit next to a window playing with the pretty shiny lamp my brother's not allowed to touch 😂👌🏻 I loved that! I was so tired I fell asleep. Please keep me in your prayers 🙏🏻 . Vet said Kiki's healing so well! No x-ray was needed as we suspect minor bruising on her leg. Every bandage change gives her a huge setback and she feels awful afterwards. Hopefully she can get past all this very soon! She's been so strong! 💛 . . #kiki #psittaculakrameri #petsofinstagram #bird #parrot #indianringneck #littleyellowfeathers #cute #yellow #pet #feathers

The day before my surgery I got to marvel at my beauty in the mirror. I wasn't feeling well so I spent a quiet day inside. 👑😊 #kiki #psittaculakrameri #petsofinstagram #bird #parrot #indianringneck #littleyellowfeathers #cute #yellow #pet #feathers

Another trip to the vet, Kiki's starting to really dread these 😕 Can't figure out what's wrong with her limping yet, we are praying it's just the fall or nerve regrowth and nothing more serious. Poor baby girl! 💛 #kiki #psittaculakrameri #petsofinstagram #bird #parrot #indianringneck #littleyellowfeathers #cute #yellow #pet #feathers

Yesterday Kiki was in so much pain. We had another bandage change done at the vet, and this little ungraceful princess forgot she couldn't fly anymore and plopped straight to the floor. She couldn't even stand on her right foot, and got much worse waking up a few times that night from pain (she is on prescription painkillers). We took out all her branches and gave her things to lean against to help her stay up. She was hasn't been in such a bad state since the operation 😢💔 On a good note, her vet says she is healing VERY well! 😊 #kiki #psittaculakrameri #petsofinstagram #bird #parrot #indianringneck #littleyellowfeathers #cute #yellow #pet #feathers

Poor little baby! Yesterday was rough! Today she's been able to stand on her little foot again 🙂 #kiki #psittaculakrameri #petsofinstagram #bird #parrot #indianringneck #littleyellowfeathers #cute #yellow #pet #feathers

Here's the cute sounds 😊 Kiki's being such a good girl taking her meds! She's looking MUCH better than last week! Thank you fellow birdies for all your well wishes for her! 😊💛 #kiki #psittaculakrameri #petsofinstagram #bird #parrot #indianringneck #littleyellowfeathers #cute #yellow #pet #feathers #sickbird #vet #medicine #health

Kiki looking super cute in a little coat we made her so she wouldn't pick her bandage. She's been so sweet when it's time to have her meds, just laying and chugging it like a little chick while making super cute sounds! #kiki #psittaculakrameri #petsofinstagram #bird #parrot #indianringneck #littleyellowfeathers #cute #yellow #pet #feathers

This Friday we received some very serious news from the vet about Kiki's biopsy. The tumours were a very rare and aggressive bone cancer that doesn't occur in birds very often. Knowing how aggressive the cancer is, I'm very happy I opted for amputation. I've been heartbroken, but my little girl hasn't given up yet. Her amputation is healing very well and she's been upbeat and seems healthy this week for the first time since surgery. We've made her a little felt collar to prevent her from chewing her bandage. She had an x-ray done on Saturday and there are no signs that the cancer has spread anywhere else. Vet says it seems positive considering how fast and aggressive the cancer was over 2 days. Kiki will be going for more scans and checkups for the following month to make sure she's okay, so please keep her in your prayers! So proud of my baby girl! 💛😊 #kiki #psittaculakrameri #petsofinstagram #bird #parrot #indianringneck #littleyellowfeathers #cute #yellow #pet #feathers

I'm happy to post that Kiki is alive and well, made it through the surgery and the vet believes it was a success. We will receive final tests this week. Kiki had quite a few tumours on her right wing that were discrete but very fast-growing. Saving her wing could have resulted in her bleeding out so we opted for the safest option for her. She's still getting used to balancing now, and keeping her from chewing the bandage is a non-stop chore. She's healthy and active considering her situation, and is a very good girl taking her meds! Tomorrow is another vet trip to re-bandage as she's managed to pull her bandage down. Feeling so so sorry for my sweet little baby and I just hope she can feel better soon! 💛😢
