Hello. You should be working with Mickey every single day, 2-3 times a day for 10-15 minutes at a time. Only time will tell how long it will take for Mickey to be totally tame & totally under your control. Just take things step by step & one day at a time until both of you are totally comfortable with each other, that he trusts you to handle, feed & clean his enclosure without any stress. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
