Moving cage

[littlered20030710]

My parents want to move my chameleon upstairs because of painting. Is it ok if we move him upstairs or will it stress him out?

It may stress him out a little, but it's better than him breathing in paint fumes. I had a neighbor that forgot about the fumes, and painted a room with his cockatiel in it. The poor bird didn't survive, and he was absolutely heartbroken over it.

One more thing, although I'm sure you already know this, take him out of the cage before you move it. It'll be less scary to take him out, move his cage, and then put him back in.

Make sure to keep the door closed in the room you move him to so that he does not get any paint fumes in there to breathe.

I moved mine yesterday from my room into the corridor. They weren't that stressed and just act normal.

Ensure your door is closed and that is good ventilation just in-case of any paint fumes leaking in.
