Tell your mom that "cuddles" are equivalent to sex and that they could kill her....It's gross when you think about it as sex...and that is what it is...foreplay....NOT innocent to the bird and certainly not fair.

Furthermore, if she wouldn't allow a dog to....you know... her leg....Then, cuddles are also a bad idea. Maybe making that comparison would help drive the point home?

Speaking of mom problems, when my "too" screams (despite having been told to ignore it), my mom occasionally will walk into the room and say "hush" (OMMMGGGG MOMMMMMM) !
She is convinced it "works" because Noodles gets quiet. I am like, DUH, you just gave her what she wanted! She is quiet because she was screaming FOR someone to come into the room...We have had to have many "talks" when visiting.

oh man, time flies, I didn't even notice it's over 2 months since I last updated this :rolleyes:

so the last 2 months went really well :D even the family finally really understood what my issue was with the cuddling and all, so yay!
2 weeks ago we started noticing that she incressingly started acting more cuddly, started to puff up more, tried to get into shirts and all that... so I called the vet and I took her in for a checkup and the second dose of her implant yesterday... she was super cuddly the whole day so I just need to wait till the second one kicks in and then hopefully we're good till november or so... :orange:

veggies are not food but they make a very good shredding toy :rolleyes: :D

Good to hear from you SunnyGirl and thanks for the update!

My Fang is much the same with his attitude to vegies, he tends to shred them more than eat them although I’m sure he must be ingesting something along the way!

I didn't disappear, I swear :D

it's been half a year since my last post in this thread (oh man, time flies fast!) and it's one year since the Sunny-panic... so I think it's time for a small update on how we're doing :)

Sunny is doing great!!! we love the Vet and the assistants, sun got used to car rides and getting handled with the mean grey towel and let's the Vet grab her and examine her with (almost) no trouble....
another amazing great thing is also that I can ow get the implants directly at the Vet and don't need to drive hours to the next country to get them anymore :35:

she's on her third implant and is going in for her fourth in about a week or so... the implants are amazing! the winter season was still a bit hard on her but we had close to no excapades and funny business at all :D
the biggest change (apart from her not violating my hands and similar lol) I noticed in her behaviour is that she isn't as hyperactive anymore, she is calmer, naps more but is still very active, loves to play by herself more... she is still very much a velcro bird but not aaaallllll of the time, if that is even possible :p well she doesn't scream bloody murder if I leave the room for a secondy so yes, nice changes!


the spoiled brat even got a new cage as a Christmas present :orange:

Awesome to get a Sunny update! Glad to hear that the implants are working well. I’ll keep it in mind if I ever run into egg laying issues (I have at 4 dna’d girls) :)
