You are very welcome. We have Mockingbirds and Brown Thrashers here year round but only see the Catbird during the winter months and I love when I get to see them! I enjoy listening to their calls too, one which does indeed sound like a cat. They visit the feeders in my yard every winter and at our old house, my backyard neighbor had lots of Loquat trees all along the property line and the Catbirds loved those little plums. They eat dried fruit that I mix in with birdseed in the feeders and they love suet too. These (not so great) pictures are from 2011; one shows a Catbird eating Loquat's from the neighbors tree and the other it's grabbing a piece of Mango from a feeder:
