It was run by a kind-hearted family who took in any bird (and animal) that people found on the streets-and, wow, they found a lot Like Toni's family, we cared for a one-legged goose, a hawk with a broken wing, sparrows, owls, baby pigeons, snakes, abandoned kittens and more. During the two years that I worked there, I lost dozens of cups of coffee because their caffeine-addicted parrot would perch on my cup as soon as my head was turned, and then would NOT let me have it back until he'd drunk it all or had tipped it over. Like Leona, I lost a pretty gold earring when their parrot decided it was a tick and chewed it off before I could stop him. I spent many lunches trying to keep my food away from their always-hungry Great Dane and, like Toni, I finally got used to opening up the big basement freezer and seeing bags of dead mice beside the ice cream The one thing I never quite got used to? Being chased out of their bathroom every day by a very annoyed one-legged goose who was "convinced" that the tub was his (despite the fact that it was the only bathroom in the house, so we all had to use it ). Taking care of injured birds is a ton of work, but it was the most fun job I've ever had, and I learned more about wildlife than I could ever have imagined. I had a blast writing this story and reliving all of those wonderful memories, and I'm glad I can now share them with fun-loving kids.
