Remembering Oscar

Our little cockatiel passed away on August 10, 2012.  We adopted him from Justin's parents in March of 2009.  He has been such a fun part of the family.
 We always knew when Justin was almost home because Oscar heard his truck and would start chirping non-stop until Justin came into this house.  This of course, got Daisy all excited because she knew that Justin was coming home.  Oscar and Justin would also have competitions to see who could be the loudest....it often ended in a tie!
 
 Even though Oscar could be pretty grouchy, he loved getting out of his cage and playing.  Lydia loved feeding him treats and playing with him on the couch and the table.  Daisy was really good with Oscar and wanted to play with him too.
 
 
I couldn't find any pictures I had taken that had Oscar and Brooke in them too, but it was so fun to watch the girls watch him and interact with him.  Lydia asks often where Oscar went.  I know that she misses having him around.  It's funny how such a small little animal can become such a big part of the family.  We are going to miss our little friend Oscar!
