I Went Outside To Collect The Mail A Few Minutes Ago…

Thought I would whistle for Rhubarb to call him over to the front yard because I had some leftover rotisserie chicken to share. Saw through the wood fence Rhubarb make a mad dash running to the yard. Came inside and told the boy to take the bowl of chicken out there to him. He was going out with it and Boo-Boo says “You do that for me.” I guess he would like me to whistle to him to get his attention and bring him treats.

Well, we know by now that Boo Boo wants everything you give to everyone else. Basically, he wants every bit of your attention. He doesn't want the guys to clean his cage...he wants YOU...he wants greens BEFORE you eat your dinner...and if you do something new...like whistling...he will decide that is SPECIAL and something that should be included in YOU taking care of HIM! 🤣🤣🤣 He's a precious little boy.

@4meAndyou He does have a little jealous streak in him. Doesn’t mind me getting my breakfast and lunch or treats for myself. But when I go into the kitchen after 4 p.m. and start cooking the EEPing will begin. He wants to be served first before anyone else, he is the number one child after all. 😂

@4meAndyou I started making pizza for dinner. Boo-Boo starts saying “Take care of me”. He can’t stand me cooking dinner knowing everyone will eat it. Doesn’t mind me getting my own food at breakfast and lunch though. 😂

@cherokeepatti He is a funny, sweet, jealous little boy...🤣🤣🤣

@4meAndyou the way he whined it out like he was a little boy begging to be taken care of. 😂

@cherokeepatti He IS a little boy begging to be taken care of. I think his tiny little body is host to a little boy spirit!

@4meAndyou he gets plenty of attention but apparently doesn’t want me to share any attention on anybody else.

@cherokeepatti Just jealous of his Mommy. Like an older sibling seeing the attention go to a new baby...🤣

@4meAndyou I’m going to have to call and put myself on video chat with him when I go to the hospital, will be hospitalized several days (don’t know how long yet). He will miss me and probably worry about me.

@cherokeepatti That's a great idea!!! He loves you soooo much...he will definitely miss you!

@4meAndyou When I was in my room so much one evening Ray was in the living room and called me and Boo-Boo heard my voice over the speakerphone and got excited and started chirping non-stop. He must have missed me or something. And I was in the house.
