To be honest, I cant see the aggressor cat's body language at all from the video.

I think the most important thing, however, is that the two of you built some confidence in your ability to refocus the cat. You guys did great keeping some separation and having a treat and you should be proud.

My first advice would be to stop calling tabby "aggressor". Redirected aggression happens due to fear. Feel free to intro them by name (to us I mean) or lets call them by colour.

Will Tabby watch some cat tv? Throw some birds up on a big tv and you and white cat can wander past a few times?

That Churu is obviously very high reward, so thats excellent.

How is tabby about playing wand when its not introduction time? Whats his fav wand attachment?

All I can tell you from that video, being unable to see Tabby's body language at all, is that White is alert, which is to be expected, but totally unafraid or nervous about it all, which does say quite a bit.
