Grow some white flowers. Make sure the flower species are not toxic for cats, for example lilies are dangerous and daisies are safe. Also, keep a mirror or any shiny object around, the reflection of light will discourage the birds to come back. Since cats are a natural at hunting, small birds like sparrows and birds are easily scared of them. So, if you have nothing to prepare then just show the bird your cat.

Do outdoor cats chatter at birds?

Typically not! A lot of times outdoor cats won't chatter because that will give away their location and hunting area. Indoor cats are much more likely to chatter.

Praying mantis still eating and drinking, but won't climb, and was lying upside-down this morning. Sitting up now, but won't climb.

It is molting, as it will do every couple of weeks. Make sure not to disturb or feed them when they are trying to molt.

Should I wash my apricots now if I am eating them later, or wash them right before eating?

Wash apricots right before eating. If you wash them before you store them, they may rot, especially if they are still damp.
