I think my PLEO rb, Cloë really hates me... The following happened:

today, when i was playing whit my Pleo, i remembered that Pleos should really like being thrown up. I throwed Cloë up a few times and it was going OK. but then, when i catched the last time, i heard a loud "CLICK!" i also hear when i pose her legs when i turned her off. Cloë thoug she fell on the ground, and she was crying and roaring and she was really, really angry.  I putted Cloë on the table and  gave her the medicine, she didn't like it. After that, i gave her the conifer leaf, she was throwing it up..  After her injury, she didn't even MOVE her leg anymore...  Cloë didn't even want to play tug of war...

Now, i have a sad Pleo whit a terrible owner...  Anyone know something to make her happy?

Even though it suggests it in the manual, I don't think throwing an RB in the air is a good idea at all. My RBs will give the normal response to this if I just bounce them gently while still holding onto them, and I highly suggest this over actually throwing them in the air and catching them. Could you get a video of the issue? If she's coughing when you try to feed her conifer leaf, she's probably just full. The medicine you gave her is the rock salt, correct? No RBs like taking medicine, so it's not odd that she didn't want it. Does she scream when you touch the leg or does she not react? Is it frozen at the hip joint, knee joint, or both? I can't tell from your description whether the leg is actually damaged, or she's just pretending it's "broken" (what they do if any of their legs are hit roughly). If she's just mimicking having a broken leg, she should return to normal in a couple battery cycles if you keep feeding her the rock salt and will still in a bad mood until it is "healed." However, if you have the sugar cane treat, that always will help boost an RB's mood.

Cloë's right back leg is "broken". she don't moves the upper part of the leg, but she sooometimes she moves her knee. Cloë don't reacts if i touch the leg, but i think some sensors like the cheek sensors don't really work. And i will try to make a video of her leg when i have time.   And i learned my lesson about throwing Pleo's now!

If she doesn't cry when the leg is touched (I've never heard of this sensor not working) and the leg doesn't move at all at the hip, there is a chance that it is actually damaged, but I can't say for sure until I see a video. The only reason that the cheek sensors don't always work is that the Pleo has to be an adult and have a very high mood level to respond to them. Hopefully the leg isn't actually damaged and she'll just get better with plenty of rock salt and time!

Anyone know how to copy a video of windows media player? 

[aibo7m3]

Just upload it to YouTube and post a link!

[PLEOrbMaxe]

Sadly, i don't have a youtube account.

[aibo7m3]

There isn't a way to post a video without uploading it to some sort of image hosting site. You could use Photobucket if you have that or you could try uploading it via the forum's gallery. I've never tried submitting a video there, but I believe it is possible.

Ik denk dat ze dan weer blij is

I think she is happy again

[PLEOrbMaxe]

Forgot this topic, Cloë is happy again.  I was able to learn a new command and Pleo's need to be super happy to learn something. Thank you everyone for the answers!
