I have a cat, she was in our house before any yorkies- my first yorkie and her were best buds. I then kept a puppy from my first yorkie... now the puppy and the cat are best buds, and mom gets a tad jealous at times. Then there are the times when all three are running wild, playing "tag". We have to put a stop to that when our other dog, Dora (rotty) wants to run in the house and play "tag" with them.
All my small animals- the cat and my two yorkies have their place to sleep... the cat on my legs, the "puppy" on my chest or side, and the "mom" yorkie on the side of my legs... (the "mom" and cat had their place to sleep before the "puppy" came into our lives) it works for them, but not so good for me at times, since I can't move at night.
The rotty doesn't sleep in bed with us, but when she cuddles on the couch, she is on anyones lap that is open. (yup a 90lb lap dog)
Long post, just to say.... in my home the cat and dogs get along great, even though the cat is 2yrs older than my "mom" yorkie. She is a small cat though- about 6lbs. (well the smallest cat I have had) oh she is also a rescue- got her when she was 4 months old. Also all my animals are females, not sure if that makes a difference or not... all are fixed except the "puppy" she will be soon though.
