Leslie,

I am baffled. I went in there last night before I put them both in the cage for the night and he was purring when I picked him up. He played with the teaser wand and a furry mouse when I was in there reading.

This morning I went in (I had let them out around 6 am to eat) and he was all curled up in the trash can!!!! I picked him up and he looked scared. Galen was playing away, rubbing up against me. I looked into Randy's eyes and whispered and blinked. He blinked back everytime I did.

The one thing I DID realize was that Randy kept seeing his reflection in the boom box I have in the room. He saw his reflection and ran behind the cage. I turned the box around so there no shiny part that will reflect. I hope this helps. I have also been treating him for an ookie right eye with teramyacin, which might also not be helping his trust in me.

I just don't get it. But I'm also not giving up. As long as it takes.
