Injured love bird


My cat got a hold of a lovebird. We managed to save it but I am worried that the bird is not ok and we just can’t see it’s injury


Answer:

Hi,

If the cat scratched or bit it, the bird will die if it does not receive antibiotics immediately. Cats have a bacteria that is deadly to birds. The best thing to do it take it to an Avian Vet.

Thank you for asking Lafeber,
