Blazeybird
Rollerblading along the road
Hey yall . I have not been active in a while, but I do have a question. My wonderful tiel Blazey (and for those who know me... can you believe he is 12? I cannot!) anyways, he has gone through quite a few behavioral changes in the recent years. I blame this partly on 4 moves in two years. Atlanta to Nashville to Chicago to Phoenix. He doesnt love to be handled very much anymore, though is more than willing to step up when he flies off his cage and wants back up .
In any event, he has had a "love affair" for my younger sister for years. Its kind of disgusting, esp because she has paid him next to zero attention ever. But his love or affection or whatever it is, to her, has gotten worse (guys always want what they cant have...) and anytime she leaves the room in contact calls FRANTICALLY for 10-15 minutes. And in the morning (6 am...) when he hears her door squeak open he starts that calling, and when she leaves to go to classes he keeps it up, until about 10 am. Its driving me nuts . I try to sleep until at least 8 before I go to the gym before work, but jee wiz guy! give it up. Any suggestions on how to curve this behavior? I wouldnt mind him whistling a tune, or even contact calling for a moment or two. but four 20 minutes to an hour at a time is ahhh!
Please and thank you! and HELLO and to all of my dearly missed friends here on the avenue.
