my cat took about 3 days to adjust to Dexter, but the cat has lived with a Golden Lab in the past. he started eating the puppy food, but i started giving the cat "special treats" in the morning and he now sticks to his food. i heat up left over chicken and pour it over his regular food in the morning and he will eat that over the puppy food any day!

they play a lot but i always have to supervise because the cat is a lot bigger than the pup, but hes usually pretty careful. my cat is kind of dog like (he plays fetch!) so maybe this has been an easier transition than most cats... i also work from home so the pup is with me all day so there is no time for the cat to "torment" him in his sectioned off room, so i cant give any advice on that.
