First of all, I am deliriously happy to announce that I now have 1.1 humans in my collection, as my daughter was born on Thursday morning!
Now here's the dilemma: i mostly handle Irwin at night, but now I need a way to "park" him quickly when the baby wakes up. I sort of do this now with a medium sized (fake)house plant. If I put him in it he'll just get comfy and chill for as long as I leave him there, but I've never left him unattended and I'm not really wild about the idea of doing so. Putting him back in his enclusure would take longer than I would like, and if the baby only needs me briefly I'd rather not cut off a whole night's handling session prematurely (I never take him out once I've put him back). Any suggestions?
