Lila has been super grumpy because she is starting her first ever molt so she’s itchy and uncomfy. I thought it might be nice to take her out for a little walk and she has so much fun.

She’s now taking a nap :3

Has anyone read this? So far so good, I’m excited to keep going

I know that some people assumed it would be like playground by Aron Beauregard, and I won’t lie and say I didn’t assume that too.

I’m pleasantly surprised.

This novella was haunting, the story progressed in such a way that it didn’t give away the ending, and kept it engaging.

It’s different than Jon Athans usual work and as much as I love gore and blood this hit me in a whole different place.

It might be a poor choice of words but it was a beautiful way to explain grief and loss.

Hauntingly beautiful in its own way that I can’t explain, grief takes us to the darkest places aswell as mental illness and I think this story shows that.

I’d love to know what everyone thinks, I loved this book and I’d really like to hear what other think and what they took from it :)

I’ve heard great things about Jon Athan and thankfully most of his books are included in kindle unlimited.

I’ve got a few more books lined up after this one:

Woom - Duncan Ralston
Painspace - Jon Athan
The Groomer - Jon Athan
Made a monster - Rob Nelson
All the pretty dolls - Sam West
Cows - Matthew Stokoe

Aswell as the cuck by Aron Beauregard but this week I’ve read playground and the slob as well as their sequels.

I’d love some recommendations if anyone has any, I’m fairly new to extreme horror but I find it interesting and unnerving in the best way! Keeps me on my toes you know ahah

My nana said they look like little old men, sure blueblue is six but look at that handsome boy!!!

Update on blue and JJ:

Slowly but surely I’m gaining their trust, blue happily sits with me and gets treats for it, JJ is much more shy but today he did nibble on millet spray in my hand.

When blue is excited he flaps his wings really quick and squeaks at me, it’s sweet like he wants to fly despite not being able to

Something I’ve noticed about blue is that sometimes his poo will get stuck to the feathers around his vent so I’ve been very gently helping him remove that before a build up happens and causes him discomfort. His dripping are normal by all means, I think his bum is just very fluffy

JJ spent today flying around my room, singing and making completely new noises which makes me think he’s settling in.

It makes me really happy to see them thriving.

Every day they get fresh chop as I bought this really neat little chopper, the ones with the string you pull.

It’s been super handy!

my cockatoo, Lila, is getting used to them but she is perplexed and scared of the two little blueberries with wings.

Thanks everyone for all your advice and help, I am over the moon that I bought these two home 💙

My splayed boy won’t settle until his boyfriend blue comes and holds his little foot.

It’s actually really cute ;-;

I’m really proud of the boys, they have been home for a week now and slowly but surely they are trusting me more and more and being brave regardless of the things each of them had been through

It means a lot and I love them both so much.
