Article: How frequently you need to sanitize your cage depends on a number of factors including the size of the cage, the size of your birds, the number of birds you have, and how much time daily your birds are in the cage. Find a cleaning schedule that meets the needs of your specific set-up.  Smaller cages with individual birds may only need to be sanitized once a month, especially if the bird is regularly let out of the cage. Large cages for large birds or cages for multiple birds should be sanitized weekly. Move your bird into a safe area such as an alternate cage and take all toys and accessories out of the cage to wash as you would for a daily washing. Remove the old liner and leave the cage bare.  It is important to keep your bird in an area free from any exposure to fumes or excess product while you are cleaning your cage. Remember to wash any dishes and cage accessories in hot, soapy water before returning them to the clean cage. Remove debris and droppings from the cage using a pet-friendly soap or washing detergent and a scrubbing pad. Scrape them off of any of the cage surfaces, as well as off of perches and toys. Sandpaper can be useful in removing stubborn debris from wooden perches or toys. Use hot, soapy water to wash down the cage completely, then rinse thoroughly removing all soap and suds. This may be manageable in a sink for smaller cages, but larger cages may require a shower or use of a hose outdoors.  An animal-safe dish soap or detergent is sufficient for this stage in the cleaning process. For better results disinfecting, use a clean towel to lightly dry the cage and soak up any excess water pooling around the cage’s surfaces. Once the cage has been washed, spray the cage from top to bottom with a cage disinfectant spray. Disinfectant sprays meant specifically for bird cages may be bought online or purchased at a local pet or bird specialty store. Rinse the cage thoroughly with water and allow to air-dry completely before returning the bird.  Some people opt to use a vinegar cleaning solution of one part distilled white vinegar and two parts water. Another homemade solution is three cups hot water, three tablespoons baking soda, and three tablespoons lemon juice.  If you do not have the means to spray the disinfectant on the cage, thoroughly wipe down every surface with a clean towel soaked in the disinfectant solution. Remember to use protective gloves whenever handling the disinfectant. Once the cage has been sanitized, rinsed, and dried you are ready to replace all dry perches, toys, dishes, and other cage components. Place in the clean cage lining and make sure the apron and surrounding area are clean and free of debris before allowing your bird back in. Do not put wet or unrinsed components back in the cage, as these may cause harm to your bird or otherwise hinder their movement and access to parts of the cage.

Article: No matter what he says or how he acts about it, your boyfriend (like everyone else) appreciates hearing nice things about himself.  We all seek validation for how we look and what we do, especially when it comes from someone we care about.  It’s good for your boyfriend’s ego, his pride, and his happiness. Don’t make this more complicated than it needs to be.  If you like the way he laughs, tell him.  If you like the way he styles his hair or treats strangers politely, tell him.  If you can compliment him on something you know he really cares about, like his basketball skills or his math grades, all the better. Relationships are hard work, and require effort from both parties.  Take note of the things he does for you and for the relationship, and let him know that you do notice and are thankful. Does he work a second job so he can take you out on nice dates or save money for an apartment?  Does he go out of his way to pick you up so you don’t have to walk home in the rain?  Is he nice to your mother?  Specifically say to him “I appreciate that you do [this thing] for me and for us.” Even if you have a guy that isn’t big on public displays of affection, there are always subtle ways to let him know how you feel.  Actions usually speak louder than words when it comes to demonstrating affection.  Hold his hand, and kiss him for no good reason.  If he’s not the hand-holding type, let your hand brush against his from time to time, and maybe just slip him a quick peck on the cheek. Even most modern guys like to feel like protectors, so putting your head on his shoulder or sitting on his lap is a good way to create a sense of him protecting you with his embrace. Simply spending time together is great, but make sure that you are putting your focus squarely on him for at least some of that time.  That means putting your phone down, looking him in the eyes, and listening, talking, or just letting him know you’re there.  Make your time together quality time — something you both enjoy and will remember.  Life is busy and only seems to get busier, so don’t take your time together for granted.  Go on a surprise day trip.  Take a surfing lesson together.  Just sit and talk with no distractions.  According to esteemed relationship researcher John Gottman, healthy relationships tend to have a ratio of at least five positive interactions for every negative one.  The more often you show interest, concern, appreciation, and affection, all of which start by paying attention, the better your odds of reaching the "magic number" of positive interactions.
