Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

In my adult years, I used to always have a parakeet as that was the pet of choice when I was growing up and they always seemed to work out well in apartments. One morning I moved the small mirror in the bird cage. I was having a real struggle and broke off one of the two prongs by which it hangs on the bars. I hung it crooked by one prong and kind of leaned the bottom against the perch.

I went downstairs, and when I came back upstairs about three minutes later, the bird cage was sitting crookedly, half on and half off the counter and the mirror was straight – it was hanging on the one good prong and the teensy piece of prong that was still left!

About three years later, in another apartment, my precious Tweety passed on and I purchased another parakeet. I took him out of the cardboard container and placed him in the cage. I went to the kitchen for a couple of minutes, and when I came back, my new parakeet was standing in the middle of the floor! Was he an escape artist or was he “helped” out of the cage by unseen entities?

I now have a cat who drives me crazy with his incessant meowing. I have asked the spirits to pet him or find another way to keep him quiet, but so far no luck. Seems they pick and choose what they want to do.
