jimmycoop2005 Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 Anyone else feel horrible if you can't spend a lot of time with their bird? I sure do, especially when I open the door and he pretty much runs to me climbs up me. If only he could go everywhere with me
judygram Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 Thats just natural Jimmy for you to feel that way and by all means do take Cosmo with you whenever you can, I know some of the members take theirs lots of places with them. I know that makes you feel pretty special to have him run to you like that, he is glad to see his daddy back. {Love-000200BF}
jimmycoop2005 Posted January 13, 2008 Author Posted January 13, 2008 haha yeah here lately i haven't been able to be with him as much. but he doesn't ever seem too mad at me haha. I just hope I never make him mad where he doesn't like me anymore
judygram Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 Well he shouldn't be mad at you for leaving him but I know a few people that say theirs do get mad for a while but they get over it real quickly. As long as you treat him right he won't hold it against you.
Nychsa Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 Awww Jimmy - I feel you! I rushed my parnter through a steak dinner last night because I wanted to get home to the managerie (one Grey one conure and two greyhounds LOL!). My parnter wanted to go out to eat after work and I knew the critters had been alone for 6 hours and would want their evening routine. I felt so guilty during the entire dinner I rushed my partner (I told my partner I wanted to wash up and get changed rather then go out to eat in my work clothes ssssssshhhhh!!!) So - I feel you - I would do best if I could take all my critters with me everywhere!
jimmycoop2005 Posted January 13, 2008 Author Posted January 13, 2008 haha yeah but I guess it is good for him to be on his own a little bit. Just so he can get use to it in case I do have to leave him a little more in the future. My girlfriend might adopt a Goffin so maybe they can keep each other company.
judygram Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 Just be sure to provide separate cages and supervise both when they are out together.
jimmycoop2005 Posted January 13, 2008 Author Posted January 13, 2008 Of course, if she gets it. depends
MazyAK Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 Jimmy: Sounds like you're a good candidate for a backpack travel cage Bruce & Mazy

judygram Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 Jimmy, I have the adventure pack that is a cage with a backpack cover that you can wear on your back, just plug in adventure pack in search and some sources will come up, a very good item to have.
Laurie Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 Drs. Foster & Smith have the adventure pack, if I'm not mistaken. Yes, I am wracked with guilt on the rare occasions when Klaus' evening routine gets messed with. But he seems to be ok. I remember at Christmas we had to be out somewhere one evening, but we were home all day the next day. And somebody had Klaus on their shoulder all day that next day (between me & my husband). He even stepped up on my son at one point, and he's not wild about my son. He just wanted to be with somebody. Poor little guy! I'm going away for a few days next month, and I'm already worried (though my husband will be home, so he'll have someone familiar around)...I'm sure he'll be ok, though.
jimmycoop2005 Posted January 15, 2008 Author Posted January 15, 2008 Yeah I'm going to Disney World later in the Spring and will be gone about 8 days :ohmy: but he is staying a pet store with my friend (owner) he is really good with birds. I think he will be okay.
lovemyGreys Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 He will be fine jimmy Give mickey a big kiss from me :kiss:
Laurie Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 Aw! He'll probably have a blast at the pet shop!
jimmycoop2005 Posted January 16, 2008 Author Posted January 16, 2008 haha I hope so, he has 2 Goffin Cockatoos and 2 Quakers to talk to :ohmy: I just hope he doesn't forget about his dear ole dad
