THE ORIGINAL MORGAN - R.I.P.
Long before Morgan had left us, I liked her name so much I adopted it as my pen name.
When we got her from the animal shelter, she was about 6 months old. About 6 months after that she developed epilepsy. She was always afraid of people, except for my husband and I. We don't know what had happened to her before to make her that way.
Just having someone come over to the house could bring on an attack, even though she was on meds. I'm afraid this brought on some very sloppy habits on my part, since I didn't have guests over very often!
Anyway, except for occasional seizures, Morgan led a full life to around 12 years old before cancer struck her. After that, we decided to give another dog a good home and we adopted Rascal. I'll tell you about her some other time.

Hi, I live with 3 parrots. The one in the pix is Simon, an eclectus parrot. He weighs 440 gr., has green shimmery feathers, blue and green striped feathers, gold feathers, cerilian blue feathers, and red feathers under his wings. All this topped by large button-brown eyes and a candy-corn beak.
If anyone is interested in learning about parrots, perhaps living with a parrot, or has a parrot, please post!

My whole family are animal lovers. We do not own any pets. Never have. They have all always owned us! Right now we are owned by one big beautiful black lab and 4 spoiled rotten cats.
I enjoy reading about animals but only happy stories. The sad ones break my heart. Good for you for giving Morgan such a good home. He was one of the lucky ones. If I had the money, I'd adopt them all.
