Thanks. Yes, Furby HAS grown. Being with her every day I don't really
notice, but looking at the earliest pictures she seems half again as
big.

At first I didn't undrstand this question. Tiger? Who is tiger? Then
I looked at all the photos... Oh, the cockatiel! My sister used to have
4 cats and a cockatiel, and the bird could be allowed out into the room.
He'd walk around on the floor, right next to the cats. Too close for
my comfort - and those cats always looked a little too predatory for my
taste, but nothing ever happened. Tiger, on the other hand, does look a
tad concerned. As long as s/he's not so scared as to have a heart attack!

I don't think it bothers Tiger much. She's had cats looking in on her
pretty much all her life. OTOH, Tyson, the new bird, gets upset
whenever the cats get on the recliner - which of course just makes the
cats more interested. The older cats pretty much ignore the birds
unless they're doing their morning exercise of hanging onto the perch
flapping their wings, which always gets an audience. I'm hoping the
newbies will soon tire of them.

Yes, all my cats have been black and white, and all tuxedos until
Rocky. Course that doesn't mean too much, since I just had one cat
before I joined the Army, and Little Bit and Sammy didn't join me
until I'd been retired for 7 years.

She's a real sweetheart. I'm hoping either she or Furby will decide to
be cuddle cats. Right now Little Bit is my only cuddle cat.

LB has certainly surprised me with how quickly she's relaxing around
the new kitties. She even tolerated Furby ambushing her this morning
without a major hissy fit.

At first LB needed someone in the middle, like Sammy in this pic

Now it doesn't seem to matter. She doesn't like them to sleep to
close, but they're probably allowed as close as Spotty is most of the
time.

Course Sammy didn't mind sleeping in the middle. THE prime sleeping
spot is on the blue rug she's on in the photo. Normally when LB is on
that side of the bed she gets the rug.
