I've come to the conclusion that one of Scooter's great enthusiasms in life is to explore strange new crevices, to seek out new cubbies and new excavations and generally to boldly go where no conure has gone before.

If it's not the paper on his playtop, it's all the shelves and cubbies in my desk, the keyboard drawer etc.

I'd like to make a sort of castle for him that could either go on the playtop or the playstand I hope Santa is bringing. Maybe based on a carboard shoe cubby or something, with cables to climb up and down. Eventually his climbing around on the wiring for my computer peripherals is going to end in tragedy, but her sure likes getting around that way. Maybe if I give him his own version?

No idea how I'll get him out of it again, but I'll worry about that when I need to!

Does anybody have any clever ideas or know of something repurposable from kids or ferrets or???

USPS flat rate boxes are free and come in a great assortment of sizes.

I'm probably solely responsible for the postal service's financial dilema.

Maybe one of those shoe-holder boxes? Not the shoe-box sized ones, but perhaps something similar to the ones that hang in your closet that a single shoe will slide into? maybe you could find or build one of those in cardboard or wood, then connect the cubbies with ladders, cables, etc.

Who knows - he might actually like hamster tubes/cubes, accessories. See if his little body fits easily into them.
