He likes to sing along<br \/>\nto \u201cnoise.\u201d So he\u2019ll start chirping away with the vacuum cleaner,<br \/>\nstatic, action scenes in movies, or any type of rock song. \u00a0He also<br \/>\nlikes the sound of running water, so I take him into the shower with<br \/>\nme when I can.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"584\" height=\"438\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AWsMVWn2QnY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been a priority of mine to see that Budgie will play with other<br \/>\npeople, after all, half the fun is getting to show him off to family<br \/>\nand friends. That has lead me to also acclimate him to my friend\u2019s<br \/>\nHolland Lop Rabbit named Marshmellow. \u00a0We started out at first just<br \/>\nhaving Budgie in his cage and letting the rabbit run around the cage.<br \/>\nEventually they\u2019d both be out of their cages in the room together and<br \/>\nfinally curiosity got the best of Budgie as he\u2019d to flying and landing<br \/>\non Marshmellow\u2019s cage. Usually what happens when they play is<br \/>\nMarshmellow comes up to sniff or investigage Budgie and Budgie flies<br \/>\nor runs away and then lands back where he was and then the bunny comes<br \/>\nhopping over.<br \/>\nSometimes when I know I\u2019ll be gone all day, I like to leave Budgie<br \/>\nover at Marshmellow\u2019s house so they can sit with their cages by each<br \/>\nother.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"584\" height=\"438\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_iVjXTjFaYU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Budgie likes to wake up before I do in the mornings, so I usually open<br \/>\nhis cage door as he likes to sit in the window and sing. I like to go<br \/>\nback to sleep. Sometimes he\u2019ll fly and land on my arm and sleep there<br \/>\nwhere I go back to sleep for another hour or two. The only downside<br \/>\nis, sometimes he likes to come up and nibble on my toes or ears while<br \/>\nI\u2019m trying to sleep.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cooperscorner.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/s3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4892\" alt=\"s3\" src=\"http:\/\/cooperscorner.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/s3.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cooperscorner.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/s3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/cooperscorner.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/s3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cooperscorner.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/s3-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>Budgie likes to sit on the corner of my keyboard, right by the<br \/>\nbackspace and delete keys.
