He then looked at the vet with sad eyes and shook his head. The vet took the dog out, and returned a few moments later with a cat. The cat jumped up and also sniffed delicately at the ex-bird. The cat sat back, shook its head, meowed, jumped down from the table and ran out of the room. The vet looked at the woman and said, "I'm sorry, but like I said, your parrot is most definitely, 100%, certifiably... dead."
