YAY! I'm glad it worked! I *made* up this technique, but its worked everytime, and its fun spending time with the birdie under the sheet too. I do that with Popcorn and Muffin sometimes anyway, just for fun. They get all cuddly down there. I think they think its a cage cover or something and means its bedtime. Good luck with the birdie, and once he settles down, we want pics!
