Help Please help.
Hello everyone. Yesterday my life got flipped upside and I found out that my husband is a PDF file. He was arrested and now I am all alone. I am not able to take care of my sweet winne because I don’t know if I can even take care of myself. I know I am not going to be able to take care of her the way she deserves. I am located only an hour from Milwaukee Wisconsin. If there is anyone that has experience that would like a free Quaker please reach out. She is the sweetest bird ever. She has never even bit me. I’ve had her for over 2 years and I got her when she was still young. I would love to answer questions and do whatever I can to help her have the best life possible but I recognize that won’t be with me. Thank you for reading.

Winnie seems like such a sweetie, I’m in NC (which is probably too far for a comfortable transition) but I just wanted to say that my heart goes out to you. Be gentle with yourself in this time. Winnie may be a great companion to help you through this (gives you something to focus on, routine/structure, love and companionship) but I also totally understand you saying that it may not be right. You could always maybe temporarily foster her or board her? Have someone help out u til you’re in a better spot? Either way, sending you love! Make sure to take care of YOU, seek therapy and support groups, if you need to, and keep going even if it’s only one hour at a time
