The problem I am having is, surprisingly, that Iza is very clingy when on the shoulder. She loves to be carried throughout the house or even just sit with you on the couch, but getting her off of you when it's cage time is a chore. Sometimes she will bite the hand that comes to try and get her to step up off the shoulder (usually not hard enough to break the skin but it still hurts) but mostly she will shuffle from shoulder to shoulder to avoid the hand. We actually have better success standing near her cage and bending down so she can climb onto it, but most of the time she will shuffle away from the cage like she does with the hand. There have been times when we've just said to heck with it and left the house on our errand with her still on our shoulder because we just can't get her off. She REALLY likes car rides and walks outside.
We love having her out with us but we want to be able to put her on or in her cage when it's needed without having to fight. We would appreciate any suggestions that anyone has.
