Mitzi has never been keen on water but once in a blue moon she decides she wants a bath in her water bowl. When she does this I then spray her and she loves it. This happened this morning but it is very rare.

Chy hates water and views being sprayed as a punishment.

When Mitzi decides she wants to be sprayed she really enjoys it, she will hold her wings out and turn this way and that. I think she must know when she needs it so I just take her cue.
Monty has a different relationship with water, he has always enjoyed everything about it, from being sprayed to playing with his toys in it.

My Cosmo so frequently bathes in his water dish I keep a bath towel folded over a kitchen chair near his cage to put on the floor to absorb the drops! He is highly insulted by being sprayed! I think in his past someone frightened him with a sprayer, because he considers it an attack and will just retreat. I have tried putting larger bowls, even a heavy casserole dish in, and got one of those plastic bathtubs you hang on the side of the cage-nothing works. So sometimes he takes a bath in his water dish-I just change it and we go on!

The bath towel is a good idea. I should put one down before I go out. That way, I won't have to step on my clean tiles in my boots to open Chy's cage door as soon as I get in the house.

It is funny how much mess they can make from one drinking water bowl and they do seem to prefer them to anything else. I have tried putting larger bowls on the cage floor as well but they ignored them.

Chy throws water when I vacuum. She now anticipates when I am going to vacuum and starts throwing water early. I don't want to take the water away too early but this morning I was not fast enough and she made a watery mess.
