So Coconut has recently learned how to pick up her dish and throw it on the floor of her cage. This generally happens when it contains something she decides she does not want at that moment. We have found her on several occasions picking the bowl up off the floor of the cage and flinging it repeatedly.
Just now she managed to unscrew the safety ring that held up her newest and fanciest toy, managed to get the toy off of it and then get the ring off of the cage bar. The toy is now at the bottom of the cage and she's playing with the ring. So glad I spent like $20 for that ring, lol.
The other day she got out of her cage, we think because we forgot to latch it but I have been vigilant ever since to make sure she hasn't figured out how to unlatch it herself. She's taken to perching on the top of the blinds which is VERBOTEN because it's like 12 feet in the air and G can barely reach her to get her down. After she comes down from such lofty heights she can be an aggressive bitch so she gets put right back in the cage when she does that.
She's also taken to attacking me for no reason, especially when I leave the room she's in (she'll fly, land on my head and bite me). I suspect it's because I haven't been spending much time with her. I had swine flu a few weeks ago and did not want to go near her lest she contract it too, and with school I am not around a lot in the evenings. In January things return to normal and in fact G might be going back to school so her care will fall largely to me, I hope it will be a bonding experience for us.
