Well said Suz!!
Cheryl, I would buy a cage, And if she crys, don't worry about it, She will get use to it, Mine did. I will admit that I first just kept Petey in it( becasue he was the one I couldn't and still can't train) But Lillly has chewed up everything and destroyed many things in my house (so did my precious Bell, when shew was a puupy, they do grow out of it) So get a cage, I bought mine in a supermarket its pretty big (guessing, it is around 2 feet high 2 feet long and close to 2 feet wide,) I keep both of them in it whenever I'm not around. Now Lilly and even Petey chew things even when I am around (my fault because I don't watch them close enough) But the cage is working out really well. One word of of caution, If you do get the cage, keep it away from the walls, I just moved my cage and noticed that one of my darlings has clawed a nice size hole in the wall of my new house!! My husband who use to act like yours, just looked at me when I told him...and didn't say one word! I guess he has learned that there are more important things to get upset over.
