Thank you for your reply; I was starting to think along the lines you suggested but I wasn't sure. Although Daniel liked his be and would always climb back into his cage, Emna's behaviour was new to me and was causing me concern. Since moving her to one part of her cage only, she has settled and has been running on her wheel all the time. She has already had lots of contact with me and is very tame; but restricting her to one part of her home will make contact with her easier. I suspected things were going wrong, and thank you for your advice which already Emna us proving to be correct.
