After two weeks, the last of Munchy’s stuff finally disappeared and he was left in great confusion as his house was placed next to a few last minute bags. Despite the fuss when the bags were moved, the actual car journey went smoothly. Munchy was unbothered and spent most of the short trip chatting to my finger. Got up to our new room without encountering Lily the cat. Munchy’s house is probably about the only thing in my room in the correct place! Covered the back of his cage up and popped some toys in and the radio on. He was fairly quiet, with bursts of chatter to his toys. Eventually my housemates came home and popped in to meet him. I’d had the cage door open and he wasn’t interested in coming out, which is probably just as well cos half the floor is still buried. I did managed to coax him out and then got out a Kevin and he spent a lot of time on myself and my housemates, which is great because he’s only met them briefly and one of those was years back. He was happy preening their fingers. And then finally he had a bit of floor time in the small open space. So far, so good. I think we’ll both settle in reasonably soon, especially once i’ve tidied and can get things out for him to play and perch on.

Looks like Munchy is adjusting to his new home well, with the help of fingers and Kevin's 😁

Munchy will be ruling the house in no time. Car rides will be on the "keep Munchy happy" agenda from now on in.

Thanks everyone! I lured him out briefly onto his playgym on top of the shelves and he’s come out a couple of times onto the perch I put on the outside of his cage by the door to play with the toy there, so slowly slowly catchee Munchy. Gradually clearing the floor so he’ll have space to play too.

A Kevin makes it all okay. He came down into the living room with a Kevin and we shut the door to stop Lily coming in. We passed her going to and from my room. She meowed and Munchy watched her warily (he was on my hand, which I was holding well out of her reach), didn’t make any moves to go for him. Not that we’ll be mixing them, but at least it means I can carry him past her without panic occurring.

Be careful though as Munchy might get ideas about flying down to see Lily.

I will, don't worry. She's old and stupid, but I won't be taking any chances. Once things are more organised any moving about will be done in cages.

Glad everything went well. Sounds like munchy is settling in just fine. I hope he doesn't get to brave and start checking out kitty. Sam did this with my daughter's chocolate lab. He's a big softy but Sam decided it was ok to dive bomb him. Sam is a little insane however...

Hope you both settle in quick. I’m likely moving soon too (not straightforward when largely confined to bed.....) but I’m sure with a Kevin or 2 (or 10 😉) all will be well. I truly believe Kevins have magical properties! ⚡️🎾

I might be disrupting the settling in process by rearranging the furniture tomorrow. I’m still trying to figure out what works. starrymist This is surely the case! Magical Kevins! With their own special brand of soothing sorcery!
