I had Eloise, our cat, first, so she tolerates the dogs, but doesn't really play with them. The first Few months she hissed a lot, but she no longer does that. It's funny, the dogs adore her, get excited to see her, But she ( Eloise) thinks she is the queen bee and stays away from the dogs at all times. Maybe if you got a kitten it would interact/ be easier with your dog?
In the past, when I had dogs that were older than the kitty they seemed to warm up to each other. good luck - I adore our cat, and maybe it is just her personality...? She is just a loner...
In any case, I wish you luck in whatever you decide! Pets just add so much to our lives!!! You can't go wrong!! :-) |
