My parakeet is tramitized ! Help...?
Okay well i got a new budgie on friday & he's a boy.Well My cat pulled a feather off of my parakeet and he bleeded so now my bird is tramitized. At first my family said that he got on their finger and he was friendly. Well now i cant even touch him he is scared but thats not fair i was at school. =[ My cat scared him.
How long do you think it will take until twinkle isnt scared anymore.
i put a piece of cucomber in his beak but he didnt eat it but he did let me rub his belly for a lil. I want to know many facts tell me everything you knw please thanks!

I'm guessing this is your first parakeet, or atleast your first negative encounter with one, its like anyone else or anything else, they all need time to reasure each other that one can be trusted, when I had my first kitty I stepped on her tail while she was with my leg, she was a bit shy and kept her distance for a couple of days, but I gave her extra attention and a treat here and there, Hoped I helped, and yes progression will be slow at first
my bird was attacked by my cat the other day and really really hurt her he ripped out alot of her right wing feathers and broke her right hip. I had to take her to the vet and get pain meds and antibiotics. If the cats claw dug into it at all your bird can die. Other than that i mean a bird has feelings to if u were attacked u would be upset.my bird is just today acting normal and she was injured alot worse. U better watch your cat i thought because my birds were in a cage the cat couldnt get them but he almost killd her.
If your bird is in shock from the trauma..I think it could take up to a month for him to recover..he may never be he same..I am sorry tell you that he even may die..
I would keep him extra warm under a lamp..not so close that it burns him..and try not to allow any more trauma or loud sounds and not handle him.. for a while..
Actually a Vet should be able to tell you how to handle this better
GOOD LUCK
Make sure the cage is a place where the cat cant jump or even think of getting the cage! make sure the budgie cant see the cat ! when your trying to realx him make sure the cats in a room! And bring him to the vet if its really bleeding and they will make it better!
I would take it to the vet.
