Glad you found the preferred bathing method! Timber doesn't like ice cubes, but I use the same kind of pyrex dish. After he's done bathing, he has a blast pushing it around and attacking it, but can't turn it over as you said.
Great videos as always Sterling!
Wow that is scary. I am sorry I have no advice to offer. I have often wondered how I would corral Timber and the 4 cats if they were panicking. Wish there was an easy answer!
There is some controversy on that. Some say yes, some say no. I let Timber chew on plastic and it has never been a problem. His favorite toy is a blue plastic straw (has to be blue) from the convenience store. I see piles of little blue plastic shreds but none in his droppings, and he's never had a problem with it.
I was glad to read this. I have had Timber over 3 years now and have never seen what I would call a molt. Yes, he loses feathers throughout the year, but nothing like "molts" I have read about! Reassuring..
