I offered to keep it a couple of weeks if that would help but she insisted that it would be permanent so I have had it ever since. Today she showed up at the door with a bird cage demanding the bird back because she missed it. Do I have to release the bird back after all this time since it is now part of our family and she has not contributed anything toward its keep and well being?
