After much consideration our family is going to bring Juno's little brother home. He is nine months old and has had some health issues, but the way I look at it, he needs a home and we need him in our life just as much. My whole family is on board and I just feel so lucky to get a second chance that I know regardless of what comes, we can handle it together. Every time I talk on the phone and hear him in the background, it makes me joyful. It will only be one more week until he comes home!
I am so pleased you are going to give Kopi a good home, he certainly needs one and you have a big heart and lots of love to give so I know he will be well taken care of, he will never take Juno's place but will provide some companionship for you and your family.
I can't wait to see some pictures of him, congrats Dee on your decision to make Kopi a part of your life.
Never take life seriously, no one gets out alive anyway!
What a lovely thing to do for Juno's brother. Karma to you for your generosity. You have a big heart Dee and I know you will give Kopi a wonderful forever home. Pictures please. I can't wait to hear more about your new family member.<br><br>Post edited by: luvparrots, at: 2010/03/06 05:09

Wonderful person
Kopi best hope.... KARMA...
A Grey is a wild animal removed from the wild, bred to be companions. They are long removed from being able to take care of themselves but not so long as to forget at times they're still wild...so it's up to us to make sure we protect them. We're the reason they demand all this attention. We removed them from the wild. Jay
This is excellent news Dee - I'm so excited for you!!!
Can't wait till Kopi comes home and we can hear all about him, and maybe see some pics with his new Mom!!

Hee Hee Hee! What are you like! Like the rest of your family I have been sitting here tapping my fingers awaiting "number 3s" arrival! That cupboard of yours will be getting some use (and I'm sure there's more been added to it)! You're a star Dee - you know what I think anyway - so I'm not going to go on and on!
Can't wait to see some pictures of Kopi ~ get that camera clicking
What We Do in Life Echoes in Eternity
Would you folks believe I have been following the forum for eight months and have only had an African Grey in my home for six weeks? I really did want to bring Kopi home from the beginning but struggled with doing the right thing, understanding full well what we are getting into and while there are going to be hard parts, it will be worth it in the long run. I think one of the hardest parts has been the stash of toys I was stockpiling for Juno and thinking it was depriving some other bird. I think it is fitting to give them to his brother. Since he is a little older and I never have spent time with him, we are going to work for three days over the weekend to help him get to know me in the least stressful turnover. We are starting fresh and he will be number one in my life. I guess I just had to wait until I was absolutely sure I could give my whole heart to him and not just house so he has a place to live. We are ready for an adventure!
And what an adventure it will be Dee, I can't wait.
Looking forward to seeing pictures of Kopi, I'm sure he will go a long way to helping you heal Dee. Of course he isn't meant to replace Juno - he is his own little guy. You need and deserve each other.
It GreYt to hear you have made it through your trying times and decided to have another Grey in your life.
It's wonderful that it has worked out for you to bring Kopi home soon and provide the same loving care you are known here for. :-)
Looking forward to hearing updates on this and seeing photos as it progresses.
Within all of us is a varying amount of space lint and star dust, the residue from our creation. Most are too busy to notice it, and it is stronger in some than others. It is strongest in those of us who fly and is responsible for an unconscious, subtle desire to slip into some wings and try for the elusive boundaries of our origin. ~K.O.
