play time

[MandyM]

I love the play pen idea. I always feel bad when I put my guy back in his cage. He acts like he hasn't been out long enough. If you don't mind my asking where did you get your pen?

Mandy, my pen was at Petsmart, but it didn't come with a top, although I'm assuming they would also sell the pens with the top as well. My furniture and walls and cords are also safe with her inside the pen and not roaming the house or playing in the bathroom. She did plenty of damage in the bathroom with me sitting there! So I got even

im doing the same thing, gaining trust of my first chin, well i got a second and now i am just rrying to get both of their trust, plus get them to trust one another, it is 3 times the work, but worth it if you love chins! they are allready doing much better and it has only been 3 days. my first chin is doing awsome as far as my trust, and its been a month that i have had him. my new 3 month old is very trusting, ive had him 3 days and he is allready comming up to my hand through the wires and nibbling my finger. he also takes hay right out of my hand allready! as far as with one another they are doing substancially better than day 1.

I have a small pet carrier--like for a cat---Trixie now knows that when she sees the carrier it is time for play. I open the door of her cage, hold the carrier up and she hops in. I bring her to her playroom, and set the carrier on the floor and open. I leave it there and at the end of playtime she will hop in. For the return trip, I open the door and hold out my hand, she gets on my hand and I carry her back to her cage. Gives us an opportunity for a minute of cuddle time.:kiss:
