[rec.pets] cockatiels

We will be going on vacation in August.  Harvey, our 4year old
cockatiel will be visited each day by friends and neighbors.  Harvey
is used to having his freedom each day when I come home from work.
When it is time for him to go back into his cage I have no problem,
however, when someone else tries to cage him it is always a test of
wills.  Harvey flies around and makes it almost impossible for anyone
to catch him until he is exhausted.  My problem?  WE are going to be
gone for 2 weeks.  Do you think it would hurt him to be caged the
whole time?  How about boarding him?  We have never left him for such
a long time.  Email would be best for your answers.  Thanks in advance
for any advice.
