This morning I thought I'd try to use a misting bottle on Kizzy that she hadn't seen before. I took her into the bathroom so she could watch me clean it and work on it. I thought if she sat on my shoulder and watched the proceedings, it would make her more inclined to accept the mister when I used it.
No such luck.
She got so frightened by my handling of the object, she screamed and flew in a blind panic, crashing into the bathroom mirror, which she hasn't done for months. Once while in a panic, she crashed into a wall.
I'm very concerned about this. Is there anything I can do to prepare her for a fright like that?
