Wow - that is beautiful. After my dog died, I made a little altar because I just needed *something* to tend to, to pour all that physical love that couldn't go into her into, so I can totally see how loving on a lil baby bird is another version of an altar, a type of digital altar. <3
I never had one, but now I fear I'm about to go down a rabbit, er, Tamagotchi hole...
It's like a wholesome Sims in a way...
I also love Finch! I spent a year tending to my lil bird after my dog passed away and I haven't visited her lately, but this is a lovely reminder :)

We’ve got a lil altar to our doggo at the house as well. I love these rituals. Thanks for sharing 💛
Finch has been an absolute life saver for my brain haha
SAME - The way that this app has a chokehold on my morning routine...
That tamagotchi parallel is spot on, but I’m really grateful that finches don’t poop or die (that I know of)
Haha me too - my nervous system is too fragile for that these days
