Thank you, Kamaria is out of her cage tonite sitting on her play area and very much at peace. I know that the process has just started, but she seems to be adjusting well with her new home and cage. She is in our living room area nad loves to watch TV and listen to us as we talk to her. Jim

I just received a CAG from a breeder in Miami, fl. where she was very well treated and raised for 20 weeks prior to shipping her to me. I have had her in her cage for 2 days now and she seems to be adjusting well (Playing w/ toys, climbing around eating/drinking) My breeder has suggested that I let her set the pace and I concur with that advice. She is making sounds when I talk to her, but she growls and ocassionaly screeches at me if I get around her too close, but is getting better everyday. I attempted to take her out for a very brief period today to just see how she would do, as she seemed to be letting me know she wanted out. Well, I won't be doing that again for awhile, she stepped up and came out but very quickly flew for my sliding glass door in the bedroom where she is kept and ran into it, I got her and had her step up and again we repeated the act, and again, and again, till I was able to get her back in her cage with much resistance! I know she is not ready yet! I have read in "For The Love Of Greys" that the adjustment period may be several weeks, but how will I know for sure she is ready to come out and start socializing directly with me and my girlfriend, as I do not want a repeat of the exercise today. (How long should I give her in her cage to get use to it and me?) We sweet talk to her all day and I spend the majority of my time in the bedroom on my computer and with her, so she sees me alot and I go up to her cage often and talk to her. Any advice? Thanks!<br><br>Post edited by: jw_ks, at: 2009/07/13 02:36
