Family is away today for one of the older daughter's college graduations (not the one who owns Sunny). They asked me at the last minute texting me at work to let the dogs out... They forgot today was Wednesday and that I would be at work!
Anyway, after letting the dogs out, I went upstairs to visit Sunny. She flew out of the cage when I opened the door! I have her out of the cage now and she is sitting on my shoulder. Seems SO content. I've had her sitting on my shoulder for almost 30min now.
She seems to be enjoying her new cage, although I can tell from the cage paper that it has not been changed or cleaned ONCE since I was last here, and that was Easter. I can tell because I don'the use newspaper, I use blank packing paper. I am glad I have the cage set up in such away that all poops go straight to the bottom as opposed to landing on perches or toys. I plan on cleaning the cage before I go.
I can tell she has been nibbling on one of the toys I left her, which makes me SO happy! I can tell from the poop pattern where her two favorite spots are.
It saddens me that I have to leave soon, but I have my own flock to think about. My hope is that, which college semesters ending, there will be a window of time that Sunny's owner is home. Maybe I can convince her then to let me take Sunny...
I'm not going to give up.
