WHOOP WHOOP, He is actually here !!!! I can hardly believe it. I have waited so long and researched so much to make sure that having a Grey was the right thing for us as a family. I was initially going to get a baby off a lovely lady local to me but then Pat stepped in and suggested rehoming. So contact with Paula was made and I was placed on the list. Despite having no birdie, I continued on the site, reading everything that was written to make sure when the right time came, I would be the best owner I could be.

Now on to the main man himself…Casper…what can I say!!! I am so so lucky to have been matched to this little guy. Its only been a couple of days but I am noticing small changes in his behaviour which clearly show he is getting his claws well and truly under the perch. He has been out for a few hours for the last couple of nights and he has had a few short flights but needs to practice more as he is quite puffed out when he has done a circuit of the room !! He is a bit nippy but its early days and he needs to settle and we need to learn to trust each other. He has let me give him a head tickle tonight which is progress and greets us with a little knock knock noise every time anyone enters the room.

He is in exceptionally good condition and its obvious he was very well looked after. I would like to take this opportunity to say a huge heartfelt thank you to Jenny and her daughter. Whilst I appreciate you made a really difficult decision, I promise you, he will be most loved and spoilt here. I will keep this Blog updated so you can see how he is progressing.

Many many thanks to Paula and Rick. Everyone involved with Casper has truly made my dream come true. xxx

Well on Saturday Afternoon we made the trip to take Casper to his Lovely new forever home with Anne-Marie!

Casper has really chilled out and become a very funny grey, the noises he comes out with make us laugh.

He is going to live with one of our forum members who have been on the forever home list for a little while and she has been so very excited about giving one of AGPC greys a forever home, when we told her about Casper she was walking on the walls i swear!

She was very excited and so were her 2 children who couldn’t wait to meet him, she had been out and brought lots of toys and nice treats for Casper and he daughter had been making toys for Casper what a lucky birdy!

When we got there we was made very welcome with some tea and my favourite biscuits i ate the whole pack! But hey it was the weekend ha

We got Casper settled in and he had a nice walk about on the floor while we set up his cage and he seemed really happy with his new home, already started making a few noises so he must be happy to be there, i am really happy that Casper has gone to live with Anne-Marie and her children as she has lots of time to spend with him and bring him on loads, i am now handing this blog over to her so she can now update us all on how Casper is getting on and with lots of photos i am sure!
