Okay Everyone,
I can use your input.
Many of you know that Levi is out of his cage more than in. With that said, he has his little routines as many of them do. Well.... I have run into a bit of a challenge. He prefers to eat on the window perch/platform that hubby made or upstairs on his hanging out cage in our bedroom.
Which translates into, he longer eats while in his cage. This is not an issue when I'm home all day. However, when he needs to be caged for whatever reason, it's pretty much a given he won't eat.
Yes yes, I know I created this situation and I take full responsibilty for it.
I'm interested in your insight into how to best stop this behavior. There are times when I'm away for the day and he's caged. When I get back none of his food, pellets, chop etc ... has been touched. I take him out place him on his window perch he poops, I offer him fresh warm water he laps it up. Than I get him his food and he eats immediately and of course he does he's starving.
So please, if you could kindly give me your thoughts on how best to turn this around. I would be grateful!
Thank you so much ...
