Feathers everywhere


Woke up this morning to the house covered in feathers. I mean feathers all over the place! I heard Oliver playing this morning, but thought it was a toy (or one of my socks, he likes playing with them!), but when I got up OMG!, it looked like a massacre in the bedroom, in the bathroom and the hall and all down the stairs! Didnt know birds had so many feathers. Poor thing.

Horrible isn't it. I remember once one of our cats must have got a very young bird and played with it indoors (and then eaten it) there was loads and loads of really fine feathers - they stuck to everything including the hoover - took me hours clearing up the mess.

Poor bird. I know there's nothing can be done to stop it, but I do get upset when my two bring a bird in. Pip even has an extra bell on his collar. Perhaps the birds they catch are the less able - survival of the fittest?

Re: Feathers everywhere


Fortunately birds don't come in the house, so my inside crew never got to strew feathers! What a mess that must be!
