IanG Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Does anyone Know where about in Sheff we could get a small wooden box suitable for burying our pet parrot (roughly shoe box size would be best) can not really think of anywhere off the top of my head, I would make one but can't leave the poor little fella waiting 6 months Any suggestions appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nagel Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Try Majestic Wine Warehouse at Millhouses (or another wine merchant). Good claret comes in wooden boxes of that size and they offer them for a donation to their charity box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon26 Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 You could also try Mitchells at meadowhead. In the past i've had wine boxes that have fitted 3 bottles so that should be big enough. Alternatively what about a wicker box? http://www.petsinparadise.co.uk/acatalog/Coffins.html You may get one from a charity shop. HTH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubydazzler Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Sorry for your loss, IanG I understand why you want a wooden box, but having buried many pets over the years, a cardboard box or even just a pillow case as a shroud would be better to allow Nature to do its work. x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tombo46 Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Sorry for your loss. I miss read your original post and thought you were picking a parrot up and wanted a box for transport. Hence the "........." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffrey Shaw Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 It wasn't a Norwegian Blue by any chance ? If so, maybe it was not dead but just resting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanG Posted July 4, 2012 Author Share Posted July 4, 2012 Cheers guys, have got a box which is like thin board and a kind of faux leather covering, think that should do, doesn't quite seem right to stick him in a old shoe box Nah Alien, He was an African Grey had him since I was a nipper (he was in his 40's) been a reyt state last couple of days, big poofta that I am He was amazing though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
