On Saturday we made the long trip up to collect Casper from Jenny and her daughter.
Casper is about 5 years old and has been a little nippy at his home with them and not really handled much not from the want to just a little worried of being bitten which i can understand .. it hurts!, Rick seemed to have a way with his straight off and as we let him out he spent some time with him on the floor tickling his head and neck which he seemed to enjoy lots!
He has a lovely big cage and is a little worried about new things being added in to his cage as are a lot of Greys.
He is settling in lovely and he will make someone a lovely Grey when he is found his forever home, you could tell he just longed to be handled and tickled lots which i am sure he will be he is a very chilled out Grey!
More to follow on Casper soon!
Thank you so much Paula!!! I do miss Casper a lot but could never give him the attention he needed. He really is a cracker and pleased I found you xxx
I KNOW WHAT IT’S LIKE TO BE ON THE END OF A VERY NIPPY AG THE FIRST 3TO 4 MONTHS OF HAVING HARLEY ALL MY FINGERS WERE PERMINANTLY IN PLASTERS BUT I KEPT GOING BACK FOR MORE I WANTED HIM TO KNOW I WASN’T GOING TO HURT HIM AND HAVING A BACKGROUND OF BIRD RESCUE (WILD AND PET) ALSO BREEDING SMALLER BREEDS I KNEW TO SHOW NO FEAR AND TO HAVEPLENTY OF PATIENCE, HAD HIM 8/9MNTHS NOW AND CAN DO ABSOLUTLY ANYTHING WITH HIM, WHEN i’M ON THE PC HE IS ALWAYS SITTING ON ME OR CHAIR PREEDING MY HAIR GIVING ME KISSES TAKING MY GLASSES OFF THEN TELLING HIMSELF NO NAUGHTY BOY.
I HAVE THE MOST WONDERFUL HUSBAND WHO UNFORTUNATLY IS SCARED OF HARLEY, HE SO WAN’T TO GIVE HIM A TICKLE BUT IS SO SCARED OF BEING BITTEN I TELL HIM SO WHAT IT DOESN’T LAST LONG PLUS HARLEY IS OBEDIENT AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED SO I WANT HUBBY TO BE A LOT MORE PATIENT TO SIT AND TALK TO HIM LET HIM WALK OVER HIM WITHOUT GOING INTO A RIGID FEAR (HAVING MORE PROBS WITH HUBBY THAN WITH HARLEY) JUST WISH I COULD PICK HUBBY UP WHEN HE IS DOING SOMETHING WRONG AND PUTTING HIM IN A CAGE JUST AS I DO WITH HARLEY..LOL.
I’M SURE IT WON’T BE LONG BEFORE YOU FIND CASPER A GOOD HOME WISH MY BUNGALOW WAS BIGGER AND I COULD AFFORD TO HAVE LOADS MORE A.G,S THEY ARE THE COMICS OF THE BIRD WORLD WE HAVE A 6YR OLD SENEGAL WITH DEFORMED LEG HAD HIM SINCE HE WAS A BABY FINISHED HAND REARING HIM WASN’T UNTILL WE GOT HIM HOME AN WENT TO STAND HIM ON SAFE PERCH AND HE FELL OFF THAT WE NOTICED HIS LEG IT WAS SO BADLY DEFORMED THE SHOP SAID THEY WOULD SWAP HIM AND USE HIM FOR BREEDING DUH NOT STUPID WITH LEG LIKE THAT NO-WAY COULD HE MATE SO KNEW HIS FATE IF I TOOK HIM BACK KEPT HIM AND BEING REIKI CRYSTAL MASTER MASSAGED HIS LEG WITH CRYSTALS GAVE HIM HEALING CRYSTAL DEFFUSED WATER TO DRINK HE LOVED MY CRYSTALS AND BY PLAYING WITH THEM HIS FOOT IMPROVED ENOUGH NOT TO GIVE HIM ANY PROBS.
THEY ARE OPPOSITE SIDES OF ROOM (ABOUT 6FT) THEY TALK TO EACH OTHER TIKO TAUGHT HARLEY TO WHISTLE OUR 2 LITTLE BISHON FRISE DOGS IN THEY BOTH SOUND LIKE HUBBY SO POOR DOGS GET VERY CONFUSED THEY BOTH SAY THINGS AND MAKE NOISES LIKE THE OTHER ONE, WHEN WE DO HAVE TO LEAVE THEM ALONE WITH DOGS SAFLY IN THERE BED CAGE WE LEAVE THE TV ON MUSIC CHANNEL SO WE GET BITS OF SONGS SUNG OR WHISTLED TO US, THEY ARE NOT AT ALL PHASED AT BEING LEFT ALONE WELL THEY ARN’T REALLY ALONE.
OUR TV ON MOST OF TIME HUBBY FANTASTIC COOK SO WATCHES COOKING PROGRAMMS UNFORTUNATLY GORDON RAMSEY IS ONE OF THESE WE KNOW HARLEY WATCHES TO AS UNFORTUNATLY HE HAS PICKED UP SOME OF THOSE NAUGHTY WORDS I TRY TO MAKE OUT IT’S A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT WORD BUT HE WON’T HAVE IT GOOD JOB VICAR DOESN’T COME TO TEA….LOL BUT I LOVE EVERY FEATHER ON HIM THE BEST B’DAY PRESSIE I EVER HAD WELL WORTH WAITING FOR WITH THE BETTER WEATHER GRADUALLY COMEING WANT TO HARNESS TRAIN HIM SO I CAN TAKE HIM OUT ON THE LAWN.
I REALLY HIGHLY RECCOMEND THE A.G. AS A PET BUT NOT FOR THE WEAK HEARTED OR WHIMPS THAT ARE AFRAID OF GETTING BITTEN IT’S ALL PART OF THE BONDING AND LETTING THEM KNOW THAT THE HUMAN IS BOSS BUT THEY ARE SAFE AND LOVED.
