You're right, of course, and I wish you well with your marriage.
But you forgot the other option: A finger tattoo is as simple to remove as the finger itself is. It's cheap, too: one of these will get the job done neatly.
(And then you can mail it back to them!)
Thanks!
Here's my secret "weapon": https://www.amazon.com/TEKTON-6466-PVC-Pipe-Cutter/dp/B000NY4THS
It's made for cutting pvc pipe, but works great on vines. It's about the size of a pair of pliers.
I've made several perches out of PVC (like your design but only one perch).
I got the PVC pipe and fittings for cheap at home depot. Probably cost $5. I bought maybe 2 long pieces of pvc pipe, and a bunch of elbows and a few Ts. I also bought a cutter like this for maybe $12, and it makes everything really really easy. I used 1/2" pvc for everything.
I've gone through several revisions, and my final design ended up looking like this
At the bottom, I put a tray like one of these. I basically built the bottom of the perch around the dimensions of the tray so it pops in and is supported.
The idea was to put absorbent stuff on the tray. I found dog training pads like this at costco for $16 for 100 and now wrap the tray and put it at the bottom of the perch. I can't stress enough how great this is.
I assembled the perch without using any pvc adhesive. This works fine and you can take it down any time you want. It's also let me tweak and adapt the perch over time. No fumes either.
I wrapped the cross bar of the perch with self-adhesive bandage like this. It's the kind of bandage that's not sticky, but sticks to itself. Goes for maybe $5 at target. My green cheek never falls off. She can fly to it and always gets hold of it. She can hold on so well, she can avoid stepping up at bedtime by backing up upside down and continue around until she's done a full loop.
At first I had a perch only, but later I replaced the elbow with a T, maybe 6" of pvc and another elbow. (hard to explain, look at the design). I drilled a hole in the elbow and hang toys on it of all types.
It comes up just about shoulder level. That way I can walk over to the perch and lean over so she can jump off and later walk by and have her jump back onto my shoulder. It's great for potty training. I put her on the perch, say "poop!" and when she finally does it, we whoop and holler and I lean close so she can be rewarded by stepping on my shoulder.
Wow, wall of text. Hope it encourages you to experiment. It's a cheap and forgiving project.
