Good afternoon all
I had to buy a smaller cage for my grey as we are moving cross-country in a week and the airline wouldn't take her cage so it's going with the movers. I've been trying to get her accustomed to it, but when I put her in she's miserable. That and she can't figure out how to get out of it. She just walks around the top over and over and she gets so stressed out
I have tried showing her with my hand or using a perch to show her but she flips out at the perch and just seems too stressed to figure it out. I wish there was some other way! Does anyone have any tips? Would it be inappropriate to put her in her travel carrier (soft sided) to sleep at night? She's always slept in her cage, she's never had a roosting cage or anything like that.
I am not sure how nights will go with this new one. I feel awful for my poor baby.
