Thanks, Dee... Your continuing support and how well Gilbert did with his travels encouraged me to allow Roscoe to transition without much stress at all.

Well... It's been a month since I've posted and he still never ceases to amaze me. I spent several wks. attemping to acclamate him to his travel cage so he could stay with my daughter while we vacationed in FL. She gave him lots of TLC. He's back home and back to his sweet self with nightly cuddles )) He's camera shy but quickly warmed up to his "babysitter" !! She caught him in his Morning Monolog..... OOPS!!! Guess I don't know how to ad a video.. I'm going to my profile & try to upload there.

THANK YOU !!! sooo very much, Nancy !!! Until just a few short weeks ago, the two yrs. I've had him, I would NEVER NEVER believed he would stop biting or know how to show affection !!! I am proud --- mostly of Roscoe for being my little "snuggle-bug". I treasure & love him dearly

Proof positive !!!! Two yrs. ago my 10 yr. old screaming, biting etc. rehomed CAG who had never been shown love has become my lovebug... With ever so much perseverance & patience he walks across the room to me & lays his head on me, closes his eyes, & stands for at least 2 hrs. EVERY night for neck scritches, head pets, lovingly stroking the sides of his face when he nuzzles & makes kissy sounds !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm lovin' every minute !!!

Not necessarily so.... Murphy is still in our hearts & prayers. Go to: areTOP.com & add pics to the signature & you'll have both !!!!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE That Missy & Ella-Rose are bonding !!!

Haven't been on in a while..... All is well with my fids. HAPPY HATCHDAY TO BAMBAM Sterling Gris !!!!!!!!!!!!!! My how life has changed since he came into your life, Janet !!

Thanks for your update on Missy, Paul... Hang in there. I know the bites are as much mentally challenging as painfully awakening. In just the past few months, my rehome, Roscoe, has gone from daily to no bites!! My ultimate stategy has been no fear & fingers near his mouth with an open invitation!! He actually has his moments he enjoys "mouthing" and exploring ... My kissy sounds & saying "gentle" have calmed him enough to finally trust my touch!!!

Karen: Haven't been online too much lately but just found your thread and beautiful pics of Marcus's adventure!!! Way to go - Ross, Karen & Marcus WOW!!! I still haven't "asked" Roscoe to get in his travel cage yet. He walks over the top & down the side, but won't go in... I put a small SS bowl w/ some peanuts in it but he still hasn't gone in, but he is curious. I just want his first time to be pleasant & not a trama

FINALLY !!!! Success.... I'm so happy for you

Congrats!!!! Just wait until you hear two babies crying..... One will be Charlie imitating LOL LOL LOL

Thank you so much, Dee... Yes, it did have a positive outcome & the agony of the week was I missed him so terribly!!! (oh & hubby too LOL) Each day I talked to Charlie he assured me that he & Roscoe were doing well. I know your right, it was grey time... cause Roscoe picked up like everything was yesterday. It made me feel better about being away. You also have an excellent idea about a couple of visits before April. I have noticed that when my daughter visits Roscoe gets close to the bars & turns his head like he wants her to pet him... Her voice sounds alot like mine so I think he likes her. I'll let you know how the next phase works

Yes, Welcome... You will find just abt. any info you need here & if not, ASK -- There are so many, many knowledgeable people & we brainstorm until we find the answer. I've had a rehome & it's taken almost 2 years to even begin to gain his trust. I see you found our Bird Rescue Haven page also. Just let us know

Paul... The minute I saw the thread w/ Missy's name I knew it had to be you !!! Your post sure put a big smile on my face Zoom is right to say Write it down.... I kept a diary of my two daughter's cute sayings & gave it to them on their wedding day along with their "something old" ... Both Ella-Rose & Missy are at a perfect age to begin all sorts of interesting conversations !! Make sure your listening in..

Don't have a Zon but it's so exciting to give a lost little life a happy forever home !!!
