Scott, you didn't mention how old Dizzy is. My situation was alittle different.I had mine at 3 1/2 weeks old and placed an old worn out T-shirt in their cage.I changed it out with another worn one about every two days.Eventually I cut up the t-shirt and placed pieces of it in their pouch and spent all of my time carrying them around in it during the day.Now that mine are older, when they see the pouch come out they're all ready to hop in. They'll hop into my pocket too, but they love their pouch.

: Melinda,
: I don't take offense at all, really. You are right, and unfortunately, I DO want her to bond quickly. Her previous owner didn't do too much to bond to her, because she knew she was selling her. Right now she's calmed down a considerable bit. She's alseep in the pouch under my shirt and I continually pet her both through the fabric and directly. Also I continually give her a little peach juice on the tip of my finger. Patience is a virtue.

: Thanks
