Ziggy Krueger, 3, died today in his cage, at home. Ziggy suffered a severe wing injury when he fell off of his perch. In the struggle to free his wing, Ziggy had a heart attack.
Ziggy was hatched in Madison, WI in 1999 to Mr. and Mrs. Hahns MacCaw. Later that same year he was adopted by Chris and Cathie Krueger and moved to Clintonville.
Some of Ziggy's favorite hobbies were bath time, talking and eating. He had accomplished the great feat of potty training by the time he was nine months old. He enjoyed chatting and squawking with his brother, BoBo, throughout the day. Greeting visitors with an 'I Love You', 'Hi' and 'Goodbye' were just some of Ziggy's charms. When he was pleased, he showed it by fluffing his feathers and 'growling'.
Ziggy was preceded in death by a few sibling fish; a brother, Simba's Lucky Star Krueger; two aunts, Miss Kitty, and Whitey Carroll, DeSoto, MO; and a cousin, Shelly Wickerham, Ballwin, MO. He is survived by his parents, grandparents, and many aunts and uncles. He leaves behind two sisters and a brother; Molly Krueger, Kitty Krueger and BoBo Krueger.
