That's why my thought is to keep them separated but within each others vision for a while so that the novelty wears off some. They will always be supervised. There is a squirrel that chewed a hole in the screen room and she goes in and snatches peanuts (my spoiled greys actually get pistaccios for treats). At first they were pissed. The older grey, Tango, even kept reaching down and pulling the squirrels tail. That was a hoot after I realized that the squirrel wasn't going to attack. Now they pay no attention to her. I think I'll invest in that screen that's animal proof.
