Pet's info: Bird | Unknown - Bird | Female | unspayed | 1 year and 1 month old
My Lovebird weighs 40.9 grams. She is poofy all the time and had been sleeping the majority of the past couple days. She eats and drinks okay. She is perching a little low. Not as active and playful as she usually is. She's been shaking every now and then. Help? Will be taking her to the vet.

This is not specific to any one condition, but does indicate that she is not feeling well. It's good that she is still eating and drinking well, but they are usually very sick when they act like this. For these cases, I recommend they see a vet as soon as possible, because birds can quickly worsen in condition and have life-threatening complications. Until the cause of this is found, there is not much that can be done except keep her in a warm environment with plenty of food and water available. I know the answer is somewhat vague, but I hope that helps and Kiwi gets better soon.
