What kind of behavior will your dog show if he wants to eat your new kitten will he also lick her a lot and whine when he looks at her?

The behavior you describe does not make me think that you dog wants to eat your kitten. Typically if a dog is going to kill a cat and they get that close it would be a done deal. They don't usually mess around with licking.


Can a kitten be brought into a home with a dog?

Yes, kittens and dogs get along very well. I have two dogs and a cat. Please go to my bio page by clicking onto my name and you will see them. Put the dog on a leash in the house until the kitten investigates the house and the new owners. This should take approximately 1/2 hour. Then gently bring the dog over to the kitten. The kitten will hiss and arch it's back, but this is a normal instinct for them. Don't let the dog chase the kitten and keep a watchful eye on them. Pet the dog and then pet the kitten (putting the smell of the dog on the cat and then pet the dog putting the smell of the kitten on it.) No matter how large your dog is dogs generally learn very quickly that kittens are becoming a part of the family. Once you are fairly certain that the dog is gentle let the dog and kitten settle their differences. The kitten may get a crack or two with it's little nails into the nose of the dog and most of the time the dog will back off no matter how big they are. Before you know it they will be buddies.

It's common for adult dogs to groom kittens like they would their own puppies. This behavior can sometimes escalate if the adult dog sees the kitten as a toy or prey. It's important to supervise their interactions closely and intervene if the dog's behavior becomes too rough or aggressive.
