> Canary out of his cage and hold him. This was something I did frequently and
> he would let me. I got him out of his cage and was sitting on the couch
> talking to him. I told him he was one of God's special little creatures and
> his head went back and he died right in my hand. He was the only bird I had
> at that time and there was a special bond there. I feel that God wanted me
> to find him that way instead of finding him later at the bottom of the cage.
