I live in Los Angeles Ca. I have never been told by the vet my bird's wings needed to be clipped. I put the bird outside on the patio table this morning, a while later we heard a crash, when we ran outside the cage was on the floor completely broken apart and turned upside down. No sign of the bird. my elderly mother said she saw this huge cat dash away. I knew what cat it was, it is a fat stray.
There were no feathers around. I don't know if the cat ate the bird in one fail swoop or the bird flew away.
I don't know what I can do? She is not hand tamed, though I tried. She is right about 19 mos old. I don't hear her and I have called her and made noises she would mimic. A couple of hours ago I placed the reassembled bird's cage on its hanging stand outside on the patio. I have been playing parakeets chirping from the internet on my cell phone outside for hours. I don't hear my bird. She was my mother's bird, but I ended up caring for it, and she will be our last bird. Can a cat eat a bird quick enough to leave know feathers? Are the chances slim to know of getting her back if the cat didn't eat the bird? Any suggestions or cold hard facts, I would certainly appreciate it. I am heartbroken. Thanks for reading this.
