En apprenant \u00e0 votre oiseau de compagnie \u00e0 se laisser \u00abmanipuler par contention \u00bb, cela aidera \u00e0 r\u00e9duire le stress qui survient lors des visites chez le v\u00e9t\u00e9rinaire et du toilettage. Suivez les \u00e9tapes ci-dessous pour \u00e9duquer votre oiseau \u00e0 se laisser manipuler, et m\u00eame \u00e0 appr\u00e9cier d’\u00eatre tenu dans une serviette. La patience est la cl\u00e9, faites chaque \u00e9tape avec pr\u00e9caution et lentement jusqu’\u00e0 ce que votre oiseau accepte le comportement. Commencez par des r\u00e9compenses alimentaires et remplacez-les \u00e9ventuellement par des r\u00e9compenses d’attention. Gardez les s\u00e9ances d\u2019entra\u00eenement \u00e0 5 \u00e0 10 minutes, courtes et agr\u00e9ables. Une fois que votre oiseau accepte pleinement une \u00e9tape, passez \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9tape suivante.<\/p>\n

\u00c9tape 1 : Que ce soit sur un canap\u00e9, une table ou un lit, placez une serviette \u00e0 plat sur la surface et jouez avec votre oiseau dessus avec des jouets et des g\u00e2teries.<\/p>\n

\u00c9tape 2 : Tout en jouant sur la serviette, pliez lentement les coins et laissez votre oiseau le voir. Augmentez les zones repli\u00e9es au cours des sessions.<\/p>\n

\u00c9tape 3 : Drapez doucement une petite partie de la serviette sur le dos de votre oiseau. Augmentez la partie de la serviette recouvrant l’oiseau jusqu’\u00e0 ce qu’il vous permette de couvrir enti\u00e8rement son dos.<\/p>\n

\u00c9tape 4 : Avec la serviette sur le dos, placez la paume de votre main dessus et appliquez une petite pression.<\/p>\n

\u00c9tape 5 : Avec la serviette sur le dos, prenez doucement vos deux mains et soulevez l\u00e9g\u00e8rement votre oiseau en exer\u00e7ant suffisamment de pression sur le dos et les flancs de l’oiseau pour le soutenir. Tenez pendant 5 secondes et r\u00e9compensez. Augmentez le temps lors des prochaines sessions.<\/p>\n

N’appliquez jamais de pression sur la poitrine de votre oiseau car cela pourrait entra\u00eener de l’\u00e9touffement ou m\u00eame un arr\u00eat cardiaque.<\/p>\n

Teaching your pet bird to allow itself to be \u00ab\u00a0towled\u00a0\u00bb is important to help reduce the stress of restraint which occurs during vet visits and grooming. Follow the steps below to teach your bird to allow and even enjoy being held in a towel. Patience is the key, take each step carefully and slowly until your bird accepts the behaviour. Begin with food rewards and eventually replace them with attention rewards. Keep training sessions to 5-10 minutes, short and sweet. Once your bird accepts a step fully, continue to the next stage.<\/p>\n

Step 1: Either on a couch, table or bed, place a towel flat on the surface and play with your bird on it with toys and some food rewards.<\/p>\n

Step 2: While playing on the towel, slowly fold corners and let your bird see this. Increase the areas being folded over sessions.<\/p>\n

Step 3: Gently drape a small portion of the towel over the back of your bird. Increase the part of the towel covering the bird until he allows you to fully cover his back.<\/p>\n

Step 4: With the towel over his back, place the palm of your hand on it and apply a small amount of pressure.<\/p>\n

Step 5: With the towel over his back, gently take both your hands and pick your bird up slightly using enough pressure along the back and flanks of the bird to support it. Hold for 5 seconds, and reward. Increase time in future sessions.
\nNever apply pressure on the chest of your bird as this may result in cardiac arrest.<\/p>\n
