Finding someone you know to take them was great. Like you said you can check up on them and know that they are loved and taken care of.

Yes, it was very hard. We had thought about having someone just take
them while we are away, but we'll be here for 3 years. So that was
kinda out of the question, especially for an African Grey. She
wouldn't have remembered us by the time we get back. We knew we
would be in an apartment (and Germany does not do airconditioners)
so that made our decision alittle easier too. Our pug just wouldn't
have made it with no airconditioner and 3 flights of stairs. And I
really don't have time to run our boxer everyday. :( But, everyone
got great homes. All to people I know, so I can check up on them. ;)

that was a very hard thing to do. I have 11 birds but nothing as big
as a African Grey. I would love to have a Grey or a Macaw someday
but right now can't aford it. It would have been nice if you could
have gotten someone to keep them for you until you got back. You can
only take two with you. I would sure have a big problem. I have 5
cats,11 birds, 8 dogs,1 gerbil, 1 guinea pig,1 rabbit, 1 rooster, 1
turtle and a fish tank. I told you I had a lot. LOL I don't know
what I would do or how in the world I could possibly only keep two.
I'm sure that was a hard decision for your family to make.
