Toys
My boy doesn’t like toys. I’ve spent so much money on different types but he just isn’t interested. My first parrotlet loved hers and she had her own tree made for her which she spent a lot of time in. River, however, isn’t interested in any way, shape or form. He seems to be hyper focused on the kitchen instead and is always waiting for me to go in there. He wants greens and when he gets them he mostly guards them or gets amorous with them 🙈 if it’s not this it’s watching out for my bunnies and if they’re getting any food.
He is also obsessed with cardboard boxes but I’m not letting him even start getting attached to one due to the hormonal nonsense that follows. It’s not easy because my bunnies are also obsessed with boxes and they have their own. Unfortunately I’ve had a day of him either screaming because he can hear the buns have cardboard or just yabbering high volume right in my ear 😵💫
I tried stringing cardboard shapes together but he couldn’t care less about it. I’ve purchased highly recommended toys for him to just give a fleeting glance before ignoring them. He likes sitting on his twirly perch but this is the closest I’ve got to him accepting something I’ve got specially for him. Nothing seems more interesting than the kitchen and what the buns have. He even stirs from his cage covered sleep if I go in the fridge and starts calling!
Does anyone have any suggestions? I’d love him to have some nice toys to play with and I keep switching them about but they’re all untouched.
