Meet Happy, a bird who not only responds when called but also enjoys indulging in table scraps and is a cuddler, making him a delightful addition to Maria’s life.

Maria’s encounter with Happy was nothing short of a miracle. While on a run, she stumbled upon a baby bird pecking at the ground, visibly injured with bleeding on its head and a scab on its nose, making eating a challenge. Without hesitation, Maria knew she had to bring the bird home.

Realizing the severity of the bird’s injuries, Maria sought immediate assistance from an animal rehabilitation center. The vet’s examination revealed that without adoption, euthanasia might be the only option. In just 45 minutes, Maria decided to take the bird under her care, a decision that seemed almost destined.

 

Two weeks after adopt

ing Happy, Maria experienced the loss of her beloved dog Moone during the peak of the pandemic, leaving her devastated. Caring for Happy amid grief brought purpose and solace into Maria’s life.

Happy, originally a bird with a scab on his beak, adapted to eating sideways due to the damage caused. His beak now carries a smile-like appearance, earning him the name “Happy.” Spending time around Moone led Happy to believe they share similarities, imitating Maria’s actions, responding to his name, and even following commands like a trained dog.

Beyond his endearing habits, Happy exhibits empathy towards dogs, sensing when someone is sad or crying. His expressions range from yapping when angry to joyful chirping when happy. In the morning, Happy showcases his nest-building skills to wake up Maria and occasionally puts himself to sleep.

Maria regularly updates Happy’s followers with heartwarming news about him, spreading love and positivity, especially during challenging times. The comments from Happy’s dedicated followers reflect gratitude for the uplifting message and how it has positively impacted their spirits. Happy’s journey is a testament to resilience, joy, and the unexpected bonds that can form in the midst of adversity.
