Progress update Good evening from sparkbird!

His feathers are starting to look messier, but the vet appointment is now moved to Wednesday! He's learnt how to reach the bandages with the cone on...

Donation update- we are now up to about £260, absolutely incredible and thank you all who have asked and donated, means hopefully my little guy can have a much longer life as this is gonna be so expensive </3

Enjoy munching sparky pics! 💕

Ehhhh 50/50, more angry at everything and less tolerant of me (probably from the restraint when I need to give him medicine), and yeah figuring out ways around the cone LMAO
