Never ever be afraid to do whats right if the well being of an animal is at stake.
Societys punishments are small compared to the wounds we afflict on our Soul when we look the other way.

LOL know the feeling.
just when you have lined up the perfect morsel of food -
they act all keen until it is millimetres from their beak.....then
"Nup changed my mind, not hungry anymore"
food slips off tweezers to the floor
wait yes I am hungry
spend ages lining up the perfect tiny morsel of food
"Nup changed my mind, not hungry anymore"
food slips off tweezers to the floor
wait yes I am hungry
spend ages lining up the perfect tiny morsel of food
"Nup changed my mind, not hungry anymore"
food slips off tweezers to the floor
wait yes i am....

repeat 200 times a day (sigh)
