Now Patches is more mine as I spend a lot of time talking to her even if I’m not in the same room. She hears my voice more than Brian and I make sure to ‘visit’ her at least 4-5 times a day even if it’s only for 5 minutes. When I say ‘visit’, I mean I put the top half of my body in her cage and kiss, hug and coo to her. At first I did this once or twice a day to get her to interact with me, socialize, get used to human contact, ect…. Then she became used to me and looked forward to my ‘visits’ and would greet me at the cage door for a nose rub. She now stomps her foot should I forget to stop and rub noses.
Patches greeting me at the door, nose extended. "Me, me, me, right here"
