Sorry to resend this to the list but I got no answers
before and since my black male started to do the same
behavior as Cairo, I'm more worried.
Also, the pair dart for cover as soon as I move, such
as lean back in my chair, stand up, and so on. Will
they eventually get used to me? In the beginning I
moved too fast in taming them so now I'm stepping
backwards and going more slowly.
