Many people think that cats and dogs don't get along, but, given time most do. Your cat obviously isn't use to having a dog around and probably will defend their domain. The best way to introduce the dog to the cat is to leash the dog and hold it close to you. Cats may hiss, arch their backs, but they are always curious. Take your time with the two of them. The dog will be more apt to be apprehensive for good reason. You can also put up a folding gate between a doorway to keep the dog on one side and see how the cat and dog react. Most cats may hiss and arch their backs, but seldom ever get into a brawl with a dog unless the dog backs them into a corner and even at that cats rules and one good swipe from the cat will put the dog in it's place.
Yes, there's a difference between cat years and dog years. What we call "dog years"(to calculate a dog's "human" age), is simple. For every human year a dog has lived, that's 7 "dog years". So a 2 year old dog is 14 dog years, while a 5 year old dog is 35 dog years. A cat's age is a little more tricky. Different sources vary slightly, but this is the most common way. The first year of a cat's life is 15 "cat years". Then you add 9 "cat years" for the second year, so a 2 "human year" old cat is 24 "cat years". For every "human year" after that, you add 4 "cat years". An 8 "human year" old cat would be 48 "cat years". "human year" = 365 days, one revolution around the Sun "cat year" = the comparative "year" for a cat based on milestones, such as walking, sexual maturity
A dog and cat together
You spay a female dog and cat, you neuter a male dog and cat.
A dog savvy cat is one that knows dogs and has been around dogs. They get along with dogs well enough that they can live in the same home together.
If the cat has lived in one place mainly her whole life and the dog is new it might take a while for the cat to get used to the dog But most likely the cat will ignore the dog if the dog wont bother her That's what it was like for my 6yr old cat and our stray dog
only if you introduce it right. but i wouldnt trust a cat near it or let a dog be near it without supervision.

AnswerWell, first you have to restrain the dog not the cat. You get cat treats ( you can buy them at PetSmart and somebody holds the cat while the dog is in its kennel or crate. Any time the cat or dog acts friendly or doesn't bark or hiss you give it a treat. Hope I helped.
To introduce a visiting dog to your cat successfully, start by keeping them separated and allowing them to smell each other's scents. Then, gradually introduce them in a controlled environment, such as with a baby gate in between. Monitor their interactions closely and reward positive behavior with treats. Be patient and give them time to adjust to each other's presence.
yes if the dog is used to cats being around it sure but if the dog tries to attack it keep close to the cat when it around the dog so the dog gets comfortable with the cat around the house
Although there are historical accounts of dog fights going back to the 1750s
They have to retire old pets so they can introduce new ones.
dont indroduce the dog to the yorkies right away dont let them come in contact. once the dog is used to the house after a couple of days introduce the yorkies slowly one by one
Despite the cliché about fighting like cats and dogs, it's perfectly possible for the two species to live happily under one roof. However, it's also possible for a cat to injure a dog, and for a dog to seriously hurt or even kill a cat. To keep everyone safe, separate your new dog and your resident cat at first; then introduce them carefully.
poison the cat then tell them you need a dog
Their names are just Cat and Dog!
All Labs are good for kids. they are family dogs, and if you introduce them when the dog is young, and will even get along with a cat.
