We gradually introduced the critters to one another and then tried this experiment: KC on Ellen's shoulder and M&M loose in the room.
All was fine until M&M jumped onto Ellen's lap, frightening KC, who took off in a feverish flight around the room, scaring M&M who jumped off the lap and headed for who knows where as Ellen was screaming and running around trying to rescue KC who finally crashed into the patio door. Of course, all this frantic activity occurred in less time than it took me to type the description. (As luck would have it, I was on the phone with Linda at that exact moment, and she was relating to me how, years ago, Mom's cat killed her pet bird.) So, the protective cage is now between the animals when they are in each other's presence, but their interest in each other is still evident as seen in this photo...
