I bought a Happy Perch last week for my QP. I thought I could move the perch from kitchen to dining room to livingroom. The suction cups do not hold very well. I wish I would have just bought a wooden table~top stand. I did buy the largest one the store had. While the plastic has "give" to it, it is thick enough I don't think a QP would chew through it easily. I would need to measure the one I have, I don't know if it is a medium or a large, but it has green beads inside it. Would anyone be interested in trying it with there fid?
If those suction cups are bad, by chance, I'd email the web store to let them know. Before you do, here's how to test the cups. Clean and dry them with just water. Then stick it to a clean and dry MIRROR or WINDOW only. The suction cups should hold the perch for days - literally! If the perch falls within the first few hours, the cups are, most likely, bad. In such case, the place you bought them should gladly send you a new product. If the cups stick to the glass window or mirror, it's NOT the suction cups - it's the surface that is not meant for a suction cup. Remember, the key is make sure the cups are clean and to stick them on clean glass only. That's the only sure way to test if it's the suction cup is bad or the surface you'r mounting them to is inappropriate for suction cups.
