That part is hard. A lot of zoo's end up with that problem. Always gotta click with the one's far away right? Ehh, that's what the yips are for!

Managed to stop old boy from inappropriate behavior when it was not wanted with positive reenforcement and following advices I got here.
I managed to both have the cookie and eat it.

Late yips back to YIMBY!

Glad you two worked it out positive reinforcement usually works great.

 

[MrsShemon]

138515

It did! Was last year when he was moving from the kennel to our house. I have decided to be nothing but positive that he lived with us just one year. It was a very good year for all of us.

Can't blame a guy for being eager, but there's a time and a place for everything.

But you are correct, ?, can't blame him for showing what he wants the only way he knows how to show it.

Oof, I meant to just take a small nap, instead I was out for like 6 hours. ?

 

[YIMBY]

138521
If it's not eight hours it's not a real sleep.

We have a saying about those, "old man's nap".

Eh, I can run on 5 if it's all I get. Not very happily, but I can and have many many times. 6 is about what I normally get though, although 7 is more ideal.

 

[MrsShemon]

138524

I need 8 to be able to function properly, less than that for a prolonged time and I am not a nice person to be around.

my body responds very negatively including running a fever, if I don’t regularly get 8-9 hours of sleep a night.

 

[MrsShemon]

138526

A fever over lack of sleep?
*must not ask to be allowed to do a study if no one about the subject exist*

 

[FloofyNewfie]

Weird fact of the day, an unusually high number of billionaires are in the "sleepless elite" category, meaning that they regularly get around 3-5 hours of sleep per night and are still able to function without issues, some without caffeine. It's true! Look it up if you don't believe me!

Conspiracy mode: It kinda makes you wonder if they actually ARE shape shifting reptiles! Lol

Speaking of sleep... ?

I'll catch you all later.

 

[FloofyNewfie]

Later and sweet dreams, YIMBER.

Yep, it’s happened since I was little. I’m guessing it has to do with my immune system getting run down. I also have shingles, and if I go too long without sleeping enough I get an outbreak. And that is definitely not fun…

 

[MrsShemon]

Seems like lack of sleep have a negative effect on the immune system, and makes you catch a fever /sickness more easily.

Sleep deprivation alters body temperature dynamics to mild cooling and heating not sweating threshold in women - PubMed

Sleep deprivation alters thermoregulatory responses. We used control of skin temperature to produce mild thermal challenge, both cool (32 degrees C) and warm (38 degrees C), and recorded esophageal and rectal temperatures, sweat rate and forearm blood flow in six healthy young women at rest. We...

I already know that I won't become a billionaire, you don't have to rub it in my face.

I already know that I won't become a billionaire, you don't have to rub it in my face.

Pfffft! I highly double I'll ever become one either. Probably about as likely as get struck by lightening, getting attacked by a bear, and getting bitten by a shark in 1 day and surviving it.

I can run on 5 hours occasionally, but do it 2-3 days in a row and I'll either go into zombie mode, or I'll end up hard passing out in my rocking chair unintentionally.

 

[FoxandtheHounds]

138533

Don't knock unintentional elite chair naps.

 

[FloofyNewfie]

138534

Well, I mostly knock them for 3 reasons. 1) Because my neck usually ends up slumped to one side or the other, which means I get to have the joy of having a neck ache all day once I wake up. 2) because my legs are in a awkward position (90 degree angle) for multiple hours I get to have the joy of having sore legs for the day. 3) it usually ends up being a very poor quality of sleep overall, especially if a pass out for like 3-4 hours before my body has had enough and wakes me up to often actually go to bed.

 

[FoxandtheHounds]

138535

I feel ya Floof. If I fall asleep in the chair I either sleep for minutes and wake up, or end up there the whole dang sleep. It's not that bad though.

 

[MrsShemon]

138536

If they come up with a drug that makes us hit REM sleep faster and have REM during a bigger portion of our sleep, all of us could have 2-3 hour per night and still perform at our peak during the day.

 

[FoxandtheHounds]

138537

I need that.

 

[MrsShemon]

128538

Maybe get your hands on some Clonazepam and self medicate?
