Dogs And Cats Under The Same Roof
Dogs are often territorial and will fight not just new cats but other new dogs as well. They tend to mark their
territory and will fight anyone who invades their space. Cats have the same tendencies and even if they are
smaller than to dogs, they will scratch and fight for their territory.
The first step is obedience. This is necessary especially for the dog, which is usually the aggressor in this
kind of situation. You have to train your dog to obey when you say "no".
Allow your cat to wander around the house. Cats love to roam and this will make her scent scattered in your
home. After doing this, lock your cat in one room and let your dog wander around the house sniffing for the
cat's scent. This will make your dog acquainted to your cats smell and train the dog that the cat is part of the
household.
Dogs usually start barking whenever they see some other animals in their territory, hoping to scare them
away. They won't really lunge at something immediately. Once he starts barking, this is where the obedience
part starts to come in. Say "no" and make him realize that the cat is also a pet.
If your dog starts to calm down when in the presence of the cat, then it's the time to let him sniff the cat.
Once your dog starts to decide not to bark at your cat you know that you've done the introduction part
successfully.
The final step is making sure that both pets have the time to coexist. This part is usually the cat's fault. Cats
have the tendency to be aloof and stay away from the dog and other people. It's not because they are afraid
of the dog but more because it's their nature to be alone.
