Why do you think you're giving her too much time out, Varna? What is she doing that upsets you?
I think putting her in her cage for 2 days is going to just make hermadder than a hornet. Like Gypsy said, perhaps a time out when she'spurposely causing trouble.
I definitely am one for turning a little cutie into, well, a Tucker or Fauna. (Little King and Queen attitude.)
That said, I used to have a living room rug that Tucks used to like tochew. I'd correct him, and he'd stop for a minute and go back to it, orjump away because I grabbed the watergun and he didn't want to getsquirted. Three times of having correct him for the same thing isdefinitely time out because I didn't want him to injest the rug, andsince he wouldn't listen, he'd go back in the cage because I wasn'tabout to fight over him about it.
Did he learn? Sometimes. It depended on his mood. Some days they justwake up in mischievous moods and I can't sit and watch him everysecond, so unless he listens when he gets in trouble, then he has to goback to his cage.
