I had several cats during my early bird-owning years and none of them were afraid of the birds; I had a parakeet get killed by a cat once and I decided not to take another chance. I did have a friend growing up who had an African Grey, as well as dogs and a cat. The furry critters did NOT mess with the parrot, they all learned their lesson with a nip on the nose!
I've been attacked by blackbirds before, I think I got too close to the tree their nest was in.
I forgot to add in my initial post - you can cuddle and pet with birds too, as long as the bird is up to it. I adore the look of a blissed out bird while it's getting its head scratched.
