I'm so excited for tomorrow

[AkasyaEllric]

So I'm sure plenty of you saw me asking about the carriers last week. Well I got one of these in:


And I HATED it. It might be ok for the smaller guys, but there is no way Slade wouldn't rip the thing aparty on the sides, and I couldn't find a single way to zip it fast enough that he wouldn't be trying to escape angrily. My husband said "Why did you even buy that, you should of just bought what you really want and what will be safe and adequate for Slade." So low and behold I have this coming tomorrow!


The customer service was fantastic. I even realized I put the wrong address in and called them and they had me text the address to that same number, then about a half an hour later told me it shipped! I was hoping for more time to get Slade use to it, but, at least now I won't be worried about him escaping by ripping a hole in fabric mesh. I'll post the pics of it when it gets here tomorrow

Nice I'm sure he will love it. Just want to add even though the mesh is harder to rip. Keep an eye on the seams because I've seen smart birdies go for the seams since they cant go through the mesh. Not familiar with that model but I've seen it done to the pak o bird. Nothing is indestructible for our terrorists lol.

Fixed some typos. Hate my phone.

Thank you for the tip I'm hoping me putting a few yucca toys in there will keep him distracted. I'm going to let him check it out tomorrow for a bit so he at least knows about it, his appointment is Friday at 5. I just hope he learns that I don't leave him at home if he sees it come out.

Is that the Go go carrier? I was thinking about asking/ maybe getting it for xmas. Please let us know if you like it. Congrats!!!

Looks really nice!!!

 

[Mizzely]

Can't wait to hear how you like it!

That's the go-go! We love ours.
I got it for my Hahns who associates the metal/barred travel cage with going to the vet and needed something for just going outside without a lot of drama.
Put sunflower seeds into the dish and it didn't take too much convincing.
They convinced me to get the rope perch and it worked out great - better grip.

I got the rope perch too actually. His favorite perch in his cage is his rope and he doesn't chew it so I figured it would feel a little more homey to him. If he is ok with it right away I'm going to just walk around the neighborhood for a little bit so he sees we will come back home together. I definitely don't want him to think he's being rehomed again.

Nice! I can´t wait to see how you get on

 

[AkasyaEllric]

It's here! It's here! I love it. Slade already seems interested so I'm hoping that's a good sign I took some I guess, progress pictures? For anyone who was interested in one and just wanted to see how it was shipped and packed.

 

[Peachfaced]

That is so cute!!

Woohoo! Looks awesome! I hope he takes right to it!

That's so cute!! I'd love to get something like that for Tibs so I don't have to worry about hawks like I do with the harness. I hope it works out well and Slade likes it!

 

[Mockinbirdiva]

It looks great!

 

[CrazyBirdChick]

What size is this one?

 

[AkasyaEllric]

What size is this one?

This is the medium. I figured it was only $10 more than the small so why not?

Great choice!

Will a hawk really try to attack a birdie in a harness sitting on my shoulder? That thought never crossed my mind! Now I'm worried about going outside!

There are videos of a hawk attempting to attack an Umbrella cockatoo on a trainer's shoulder. A family of hawks moved in close by so I haven't been able to take Tibs out in his harness.
