No (that is too dear to take away) but it should help with the skittishness.
It makes you smell like a cat (or so the theory goes). It really helped with
the Royal Princess Kitty Katt (rehomed from my Mom's). It certainly helped
establish a "safe area" with her.........not the awful smell of the terrible
person who catnapped her from her chosen person.
If you have men who will
exclude any of God's creatures
from the shelter of compassion
and pity, you will have men who
will deal likewise with their
fellow man.

Will that take the "chirping away?"

Try putting Feliway spray on your hands when you are sneaking a petting.

I forgot to mention, I have a cat that raised in a birdcage, like a bird.
He came from another "hoarding" situation (pseudo rescue person), but he
was only from 60 to 70+ cats.....
I got Runes when he was about 12 weeks old, very malnourished and he had
what my vet called the worst case of ringworm that he had ever seen, in 40+ yrs.
THAT'S a lot of ringworm.
Anyway, Runes is still a bit "skitty" after all of this time, but when he
is eating, you can sneak up on him and stroke his back.
He will then "chirp" like bird........... :)
Think that there is a connection........?

There is a wonderful tape of birds, squirrels, etc that Ebony and Mitu
loved. They had a stool in front of the TV in the bedroom and frequently I got
requests in the middle of the night for a private viewing. Ebony would sit on
the stool just waiting, knowing I would put it on for him and his little
girlfriend. I need to try that with Dixie but she enjoys the sunroom and lots
of wildlife there. I saw no mention of old orange juice in shallow pans (birds
and butterflies). Milk weed is a wonderful plant for attracting Monarch
butterflies (don't know if it grows in Texas or not but the Monarchs sure could
use some help).
What is a disappearing fountain?
