*Finally* heard from the vet about Kiwi's tests. Turns out she's actually healthier than the last time I took her to the vet 2 years ago, lol. The only problem she had then was her kidneys, her uric acid was high. It's still a tad high but almost normal now. Anyways she's got fuzz coming in, and she's all "bumpy" - that's her feathers poking through. Unfortunately as I have to catch her and hold her to give medicine every day she's mad at me and goes to sulk in the bottom corner of her cage whenever I go to say hi to her. She wouldn't come out voluntarily Tuesday or Wednesday; she decided to try coming out this morning but of course before putting her back in later she got medicine, so I dunno, she might not want to come out again for weeks now. She'll be done with the meds in...two Mondays. Hope we can both keep our sanity, poor bird. So anyways other than being upset about getting medicine she's quite good.
