Hi, my 8-9 year old Quaker m, Willow, likes to be out of his cage a lot. But he wants to be on his basket on my lap (near my face) and for me to pet him with one or both hands. Both hands is preferred.
Iβd like to get him more comfortable being on my shoulder. He doesnβt have any leg or foot problems so itβs not an issue with hanging on. I think itβs more that he likes to be able to look at my face. If he sat on my shoulder he could hide under my hair and snuggle up to my neck AND I could walk around and do other things.
Sometimes I just put him up there, if I must get the phone or mail or answer the door, but is there a good way to get him to like being on my shoulder? He will run down my arm onto my hand, or flip his wings and yell, otherwise.
