I just had my husband inspect upstairs and he didn't find anything, so I am assuming it finally figured out how to fly out the window I opened for it. Or it went out the way it came in, whatever that was.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freaking-out-1#post-404868 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 12:44:21 +0000 blackbird 404868@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh no! I hope it got out! I found a dead bird in a cardboard box downstairs once and i have NO IDEA how it EVER got into the house!!! NO CLUE. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freaking-out-1#post-404864 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 12:41:19 +0000 sslm 404864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh my GOD. That is my worst nightmare!!! I have an actual bird phobia, so I am majorly cringing right now :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freaking-out-1#post-404853 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 12:29:02 +0000 fairefaire 404853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ms.janedoe: It either finally flew out or is dead up there somewhere.... haven't heard anything in quite a while and the cat finally came back down (without any feathers in its mouth, thank goodness!). When my husband gets home from work I am going to make him inspect every corner up there!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freaking-out-1#post-404779 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 11:25:00 +0000 Turd Ferguson 404779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hahaha, oh maaaaan. That blows. I guess I'd open any/every window and door and cross my fingers that another one wouldn't get inside in the process! Good luck!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freaking-out-1#post-404744 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 10:44:10 +0000 Cole 404744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In that case I am totally with you! I was having nightmares for you of a ruined couch! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freaking-out-1#post-404742 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 10:43:14 +0000 fairefaire 404742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cole: Your husband's method sounds like how I handle bugs/spiders :) ha!</p> <p>I am so not going up there again.... thankfully our upstairs is unfinished (next big house project) so I'm not worried about it ruining anything.... I just want it gone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freaking-out-1#post-404740 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 10:40:08 +0000 Cole 404740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had one fly through the screen in our covered porch and it wouldn't leave, the bird was absolutely frantic. Eventually my husband put a mesh trash can over it, slid something under it and took it out that way. If you can manage to catch it like that you might want to try because cleaning up the bird droppings was less than fun... Sorry about your situation! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freaking-out-1#post-404739 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 10:37:39 +0000 fairefaire 404739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't heard anything in a little while so now, in my mind, I'm just imagining my cat gorging on a bird feast. :( :( :(</p> <p>I don't handle these situations well.... clearly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freaking-out-1#post-404736 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 10:34:39 +0000 Andrea 404736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ahhh this happened to me in my apt. We opened the windows and it would not leave so we opened the front door and it eventually left. I have no idea where it went after that. I still wonder about that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freaking-out-1#post-404733 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 10:32:34 +0000 fairefaire 404733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There is a #($)@#)($*@# BIRD in my house. And it will not leave. I kindly opened the window and it moronically keeps flying into the closed half rather than out the GIANT OPEN HOLE I have left for it.</p> <p>There is nothing I hate more than birds. My cat is up there loving the show, and I'm so freaked out she's going to attack it and then soon not only will I have a BIRD IN MY HOUSE but I will also have bird BLOOD in my house.</p> <p>Of course my husband is at work until who knows when.... I'm downstairs hiding under blankets and cringing every time I hear it bang into the glass.</p> <p>Any genius ideas on how to get it OUT!!! Or thoughts on how it even got inside in the first place??? </p> <p>hhhhaaaatttteeee. biiiiiirds. </p>
