I think it would be different if a kitten were coming in after the dog was already there. They could end up good buddies! But the previous poster is right about the claws! I know alot of people don't agree, but you could always have the cat's front claws removed if you were worried about that. |
A kitten and Yorkie should get along just fine - might be a few small scratches in the beginning but they'll teach each other what the limits are. We have three cats, a 110 pound Pyrenees (supervised always) and our active 5 month old Yorkie - they let each other know what they can get away with. Please don't declaw as it is an amputation done at the cat's nuckle - some cats are left in pain for the rest of their lives. Good luck if you do add a kitten to your family!
