Title: Starting to bond . . .
Post by: jaimieshaw on July 24, 2014, 02:40:19 AM

So, this morning Gizmo took a raisin right out of my hand for the first time! He is such a cutie! I've only had him since Saturday, and he's already showing signs of bonding. It feels good that he's learning to trust me! ;) ;) ::chinhappy::

Be careful not to overbond, or overpamper?

Popsicle has gotten REALLY spoilt... nowadays, after playtime, when he goes back in his cage (or I put him back in), he gets a rose hip as a treat.
Lately, if he's not satisfied with his playtime, he will refuse his treat! Then I have to placate him by cuddle time or chin scratching or offering it mouth to mouth before he takes his treat. ... RIDICULOUS lol, he's even worse than a dog sometimes!
