That's Murphy's home

Harrison is really turning into a wild man. He is all over the place and I am constantly amazed at how fast he can move - especially when it comes to splashing in Murphy's water bowl, playing with the garbage in the bathroom. or taking off the vent cover and trying throw things down there. Today he was playing outside on the slide and leaned over the edge waving to Murphy on the hill. I about had a heart attack. I guess this is just the beginning.

Harrison is now  - well actually about two weeks ago - officially weened. He seems to have adjusted well. As have I. I must admit it was a little sad at first but it was time for both of us to move on. I have made sure to add a little extra cuddle time daily and that seems to have avoided any issues. But truly, we have been so busy that it seems like it has been longer than two weeks. One of our recent lessons is regarding Murphy's home. While Murphy seems content to share his cage with Harrison at times, we thought it would be better for the cage to be Murphy's haven - where he always knows he can get a little quiet time. Needless to say this has been a feat. Harrison would much rather crawl inside with Murph and close the door so that they can have a little bonding time. We are constantly leading Harrison out and saying 'that is Murphy's home'. So yesterday I built Harrison 'a home' out of a big box. It still seems like more fun to be hanging out with Murphy his home but it seems like Harrison's new home might be helping, at least a little.
