got me a new chum

[ock]

this is Malcolm, he`s my new chum, found him wandering around outside work this morning, somethings had a go at him as half of his tail is missing

[Gwenoakes]

Aww what a cutie, not very old by the size of him/her. Is he/she a pigeon/dove or similar?

How do you know he is a 'he' then? Come on spill the beans. LOL

[ock]

it`s a baby collar dove, I know it`s a boy because Malcolm is a boys name

it`s sleeping in an old parrot cage in my garage at the mo, not sure if it will recover as it spent all day sleeping in an open box in the back of my truck, will have to wait and see, it`s got food and water and it`s nice and quiet in the garage, it`s up to him now

Might want to give the RSPB or local collard dove protection league a shout.

[perchy]

You are such an adorable sweetheart


Malcolm

Well done Ock, you have given him a chance

[p.penn]

Hmmm...he looks a bit dishevelled and odd to me

Nice of you to sit on his shoulder like that though

[Gwenoakes]

Ppenn

As soon as I wrote that sentence about male or female I just knew what your answer would be.

How is he today?

[ock]

Malcolm died

thought he might, looked in on him this morning before work and he was sat in his little bed not moving, well at least he spent his last hours safe and in the warm

[Totally Scrambled]

RIP Malcolm.

Aahh, poor little Malcolm. at least you looked after him at the end of his little life Ock

[Gwenoakes]

Sorry, Ock. RIP Malcolm.

[bluebell]

RIP Malcolm

You did everything you could for the little guy. He's had someone in his life who cared for him.

Ock, bless your heart, hun.
