Craig & Debra,

I wanted to write and tell you how happy we are to have our baby caique. Dewey is doing well. He still gets his formula in the evening and doesn't seem like he's even thinking about quitting any time soon. We rearranged the inside of his cage to make it a little easier to get into his happy hut, he seems to like it better now and he spends every night inside.

We had a hard time getting him to eat first thing in the morning. He seemed hungry but didn't like what we were offering. We started putting a little warm birdie bread in with his fruits and vegetables, this did the trick. The birdie bread gets him started then he moves on to his veggies. I hope its ok to give the birdie bread every day because he really counts on it now.

He is getting along with our dogs pretty well. The dogs were nervous at first but Dewey wasn't nervous at all. I think this helped the dogs because Dewey acted like it was no big deal and the dogs eventually agreed.

He seems to have fun no matter what he's doing but being in the bathroom when somebody showers seems to be his favorite.

Well, that's the update. I'll write again soon and keep you up to date on Dewey's progress. Thanks again for all your help. Dave
