miata Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 I have a CAG that heads for her water cup whenever the vacuum is started up. Water everywhere but on her. I've tried putting a large bowl in the bottom of the cage but won't use it. I usually give her a bath in med. cool water then wrap in a towl to pat dry then let her fly around the house with my hand holding her in place. She is also a feather plucker. Have tried everything for several years. Next week I head to a new avian Dr., maybe he can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Ok, now I'm wondering whether Klaus is on my side, here! I went to work one day last week and left a note for my husband to please vacuum before work (he works afternoons). He said that Klaus freaked out when he vacuumed. (Whereas he slept when I vacuumed.) Lots of nervous wing fluttering and some intense "Let me out" routine (beak on a front bar of the cage, feet scratching the floor). Maybe Klaus only doesn't like it when Dad vacuums? I'll soon find out because the place needs vacuuming again, it's on the agenda for tonight.

kiwibarb12 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 Beckette absolutely hates the vacuum cleaner - she runs to the top of her cage and growls until I get far enough away from her cage. The fartherest thing from her mind is bathing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
