SRSeedBurners Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 Bluedawg, you appear to have a nearly identical strain to the one I have. Right down to the very talented 'hang from my toenails and do my best yoga twist'. I was also eyeball'ing that cargo net. Looks like something I need for my aviary now that we've moved back in during the warm days. Looked at the price - I believe I'll be making one. whoaaa....

bluedawg Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 (edited) Does yours pluck Keys? Re: Cargo net, yes... I thought the same thing and bought a long thick rope from http://www.knotandrope.com/ Which was too stiff and thick to tie into the necessary knots so it is now draped around my basement making cool parrot pathways down there. Make sure you call them and let them know what you are going to do with it and they can probably suggest a non-toxic rope that you can tie in knots. Their cotton rope might be even better to use.

SRSeedBurners Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 Mine will pop the keys if I do not take the appropriate anti-virus countermeasures (tickle-tickles work best). So far I have not lost a key. However, my wife's laptop has been struck by the St. Patricks lil green gobblin version of this virus and has 10-15 keys missing in various spots.

bluedawg Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 (edited) Oh, that's too funny - Mine had a few missing too so I brought it in for cosmetic "fixes". Now again the f12 and the tab are gone. If I used those counter measures I am afraid I would get bit. All in good fun but my skin is not made for such play. I am working on the braveness issue.

M'sBabies Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 lol I Love this thread. So far my computer and laptop are safe from this extremely persistent virus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kins2321@yahoo.com Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Sophie can pop off the keys in seconds and my computer is stripped! I've had to print out " placement" of keys several times. When I needed a new computer, my son made me buy a laptop... it was tough for me to get use to, but he showed me how amazing it is too close it! LOL! ( I am computer illiterate, and my kids really make fun of me!). She still stole a key, but as I didn't know what it did, I don't miss it Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elvenking Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I have had the same virus, it has eaten over six keyboards, destroyed a motherboard and even tore up my computer chair. These viruses are super nasty. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are ordering one from here: http://www.estarbird.com/get-a-grip-exercising-foraging-net-cargo-canopy-net/ Megan has pretty much destroyed the old one which was a lucky Craigslist find. She took another corner off it tonight, as a matter of fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Echo's Mom Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I've replaced 3 keyboards because of Echo's mischievousness LOL The first time, I blamed her hahahaha ... OMG How COULD YOU? You have 8 million toys, and you destroy my keyboard? The other two times, oh yeah, my fault LOL ... and my current keyboard, has 9 keys missing, so I'm due for a new one soon! I have an all-in-one touch screen computer, so Echo is NOT allowed on my monitor! She doesn't like the cat's flirt pole, so that sits on top of my monitor to keep her from landing on it!

kins2321@yahoo.com Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Echo's mom... good thinking with the cat's flirt pole! ( what is that exactly?) I LOVE cats, but am severely allergic! ( I would love a cat!) Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muse Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Bluedawg - I was told that My Safe Bird Store = My Bird Store = Bird Paradise = A&E Cage company. Bird Paradise either owns or sources their birds from a breeding mill. Even if it meant paying a hundred dollars more, I don't shop there. This is the one we have here: https://www.windycityparrot.com/Parrot-Climbing-Net--Medium-Short-Includes-Shipping_p_2477.html We didn't buy it from WCP, though, we got it off Craigslist (for $50).

Echo's Mom Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 A cat flirt pole is a piece of wood (or handle of some kind) with a rope attached to the end and a big feather for the cat to chase. Echo doesn't like the feather, so I rest the handle across the top of my computer, and the feather dangles .. serves its purpose beautifully! However, it's obviously not enough of a deterrent for my keyboard (which is only about 8 inches away from the feather LOL)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
