Received a phone call last week which resulted in me accepting a new lease for a 3 bedroom townhouse, pet friendly with a fenced back yard. I'm beyond excited and managed to sublet my place over the weekend so now I can just focus on packing.
I had to accept the new place without seeing it but I was told it is newly renovated and did a drive-by later that day and it looks great from what I could see through the windows. I did not get a good look at the bedrooms however as they are upstairs.
My mind immediately goes into planning mode for the chams. Right now I'm in a small 2 bedroom and I gave up my Master bedroom for the chameleons. I'm thinking 1 bedroom for each of the kids but really, one will be for their clothes and bunk beds and the other will be a play room with their toys because they insist on sleeping together and since they are young I don't see an issue with it. Saves me from having to purchase a second bed right now anyway! I figure I should probably take the Master bedroom this time but I'm on the fence about that. I may or may not. It really depends how the living room works out.
If I have the room, I am going to set up the cages and free range in the living room so that I can just open the doors to their cages and they will have a tree/vine system that wraps around the room. This place has laminate flooring so I won't have to cover carpet like I have had to in the past. Easy to clean.
Since my children are with me half the time and their playroom will be upstairs, there is a good portion of time where there is not much traffic at all in the living areas of the home which is why I'm leaning towards keeping them there. It will give me the chance to set up their free range to extend onto the patio as well in the summertime.
Does anyone have thoughts on the above mentioned? Also, if you have any tips to moving the chameleons, I would appreciate suggestions.
Thanks guys. Exciting time for us.
