Breaking a bad Habit

[MTOO58]

I have just added an adorable U2 to my home. I am a former owner and noticed something that is important to correct. After only a couple of days we have bonded very well. The problem is his former owner was a lady whom I can see spent too much time cuddling him. This can create emotional problems if persisted,that perhaps they were not aware of. I would like some suggestions on how safely I can correct this in a timely fashion without emotionally damaging the U2.

I would highly recommend teaching your new 'too how to forage and play with toys and highly reward those desired behaviors. Basically, reward anything you want him to do over the undesired behavior.
