Shamelessmuse Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Well, Greyce has been out and won't stay on her table top play gym. She wants to explore, which is wonderful as it means she is getting more confident here. However, she just grabbed and pulled off the shift key off my company laptop. I spent 10 minutes doing the wobble while I tried to get it out of her mouth before she grabbed it with her foot and bit me. Luckily she did not win and I got it back before she could get it out of her mouth and into her foot. sheesh!:laugh: She has been a handful tonight. She wants to be right next to me, but getting into mischief! She keeps flying from her cage to me, she won't stay anywhere. But, when she gets to me she either wants to eat the laptop or my ear with a total one track mind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Welcome to the real world, Muse, thats exactly what Josey tries to do too, eat the keys off, you want them to be near you but when they do they are tearing everything apart that they can get to. I wear reading glasses when I am at the computer and Josey thinks they are there for her to get a hold of and tear up. :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MommaFawkes Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I spend a good part of my day saying.."No bite Keys!!, no no, leave it!" They all look at me like in crazy but hey so far it has worked! lol!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertbert Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Gizmo does this too, the most keys he has managed to pull off at one time is three. But then he puts the keys in his mouth and starts running away, then if I catch up he puts them in his foot and swings his foot around in all directions and angles thinking i wont be able to get it back....they think they're so smart!

judygram Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Tiffani you would be in big trouble if she did tear off your keys with the forums you keep up with at the same time, I don't know how you do it, must have a super fast computer and fast fingers.:laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamelessmuse Posted March 7, 2008 Author Share Posted March 7, 2008 What kills me is that she won't let it go. I put her on her play top, she climbs down, over the table, onto the sofa, straight to the lap top. I put her on the cage, she flies over, climbs up my leg, and to the lap top. Criminy!:laugh: No amount of discouragement will deter her, she wants to eat it and eat it now and if she can't have it, she wants my ear and in the past few minutes Lily's tail has been added into the mix...I have a very unhappy Chihuahua right now. She wants to sleep and if Greyce can't have the laptop or my ear, then gosh darn it I want Lily's tail! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is interesting!! But above all their favorite spot to sit with me is the computer!! So when you notice all my typos....remember its somebody with feathers trying to tell you all hello!!!! LOL!

spookyhurst Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 They can be such pests ! Nikko likes to go for earrings. She plucked one out of my mom's ear once (without doing damage, thankfully), and we had a heck of a time getting it back. She rolled it around in her beak, and occasionally stuck it out to mock us, and then sucked it back in before we could take it away. I was terrified she might accidentally swallow it, but we finally won out. Nikko hasn't discovered the joys of popping off computer keys, so your birds better hush up and not let her in on their little secret :angry:.

danmcq Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I cured Dayo of keyboard Keys. I took several key's off an old keyboard I had laying around and let him play with them to his hearts content. He became bored with them after two days and no longer even looks at the keyboard, it's just to boring to him now. B) Now he is enthralled with ink pens and pencils. I have given him "Fake" pencils to tear up, but that hasn't helped. So now we have put up our container (Cup) that we keep them all in. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMustee Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Elmo has gotten the idea that he is not allowed anywhere near the new laptop. When he wants attention he will act like he is going for it but stops at the last second and looks at me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watchout Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Sounds like we all deal with some of the same issues. Maui has put a couple nice scratches in my company laptop too and has hidden one of the keys. I put a perch for him right beside my chair now and I don't let him on me when I am working.

nevjoe Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 I have just laugh myself to tears. This is so funny because my guys have to stay away from mine also. They are so bratty, and they make me laugh. Thank goodness my guys are cliped or else I would go nuts. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 I'm chuckling as I read all these...I wear glasses sometimes and Klaus just thinks it's party time when I do! One night I was so frustrated I got him off me and set him on top of his cage to play. He knew what for because I'd just scolded him approx 3 times for chewing the glasses. After a little while I picked him back up. He clambered to my shoulder, leaned forward and opened his mouth to get the glasses. Then stopped, thought better of it, and behaved himself. They are so smart! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
