I haven't participated on that group for quite awhile but it is a good resource for someone who wants to learn more about clicker training. BTW, it was started, and is managed by Marilyn Krieger (the Cat Coach).

I was just in playing with Azidi. Lying on the floor with the wand toy. She was walking around me giving me head butts. She waked up to my face and looked me straight in the eyes and deliberately gave me a firm nose touch. As we all know, that is a sign of affection. a kiss. First time she has nose touched me at all, let alone nose to nose. I am so happy.

Not anything major to most of you, but it warmed my heart. Azidi has begun to take her afternoon naps in the little kitty bed I got her. She seems to like it quite a bit.
Kilifi, on the other hand, is still using her's as a toy box..

OK. I have been watching the girls on the kitty cam. Azidi will look out through the air grille in the door, and will take her little mouse toy and put it by the door so Kilifi can pull it under the door. Then Kilifi will take her mouse and push it under to Azidi. Then, of course, dad has to return the mice to their rightful owners. Azidi will watch for Kilifi to come to the door and when she does, Azidi will dart away from the door. I think they are maybe warming up a little to each other. But Kilifi is still very aggressive, and Azidi is still very skittish. but I do see SOME warming.

I think you need to continue to have them spend face-to-face time with Kilifi restrained, preferably with leash and harness but if necessary in a crate. It has to be more than a few minutes at a time... I would leave Kilifi on the leash for a few hours or for the evening, either in Azidi's room (loop the end of the leash around the leg of the bed) or out in the living room with Azidi's door left open.
