I have a 2 year old toddler.
and until Last night I had a cocketail,
that bird was her favorite thing in the world. she would spend hours talking to it.
last nigt around 4:00 am, my wife wakes me saying that he's making funny noies and she heard a "thump." so I get out of bed to go look at the bird had fallen to the bottom of the cage. and died abour 30 mins later. we buried it last night so my daughter wouldn't have to see it's dead corpse in the cage. This morning we decided that we should put a gate up in the front of the room where the bird wasn so she wouldn't see the empty cage.
AS of current she still does not know that the bird died last night,
and we don't know how to even begin how to explain it to her. or how she is going to react. she's a very smart 2 year old. (almost 3)
