This afternoon while I was doing laundry, I realized that I was thinking about how I could reorganize the room to fit in one more large cage. So, unconsciously it seems, I'm thinking about how I can fit Jasper into the household when Opti finishes her quarantine. I dunno--I have an appointment for Wednesday for another guy to come meet Jasper. He sounds very reluctant about Jasper's aggressiveness--but that might be a good thing. At least I know he's really thinking about Jasper's personality and about dealing with him long-term. IF the guy actually shows up, I'll see how Jasper reacts to him. But in the meantime, I wonder if my parents would mind storing that big old brown chair for a while... |
I am not laughing at your misadventures, not in the sense to be mean. You have to admit those responses you posted were nothing less than funny. It just seems that the more you try to do the right thing, the weirder the response/feedback you receive to your attempts. I really, sincerelly hope all works out for both you and Jasper. You really are in my thoughts and prayers. If you were a bit closer, I would bring over a six pack and go through the motions with you cause I have been where you are before with a Yellow Collared Macaw I brought home (knowing he was nothing but mean and agressive) years ago. There were many days where I thought what I have I gotten myself into here. Things worked out though. I kept him, he eventually warmed up and turned out to be a sweetheart of a bird. He was the best thing I ever "stuck out". I had to tap into my reserve account in the "patience" department. I bought alot of band-aids. I cried alot. Me and Sully became really really good friends. He passed away in January, I miss him everyday. I know he left this world happier than when I found him. I was his "chance." I learned alot from Sully.
