I have a Yorkie and a Cat, they get along very well NOW but it was all about both of them setting boundaries with each other.

Does your cat have claws? (mine does), when Sophie Kate was little I would watch her around the cat as a precaution just in case Avery (the cat) got a little rough with her. Once Sophie Kate got a little bigger I began letting them play, sometimes it got rough but never anything bad. Now they basically chase each other and then collapse together for a nap.

The shaking of the toy, I think that is typical for dogs. I never worried about that since Sophie Kate is a lot smaller than Avery (she is 8.5 lbs and he is normally around 15 lbs).

I do make sure they never eat each other food since both have special dietary needs.

Good luck and my advice is let them figure out the pecking order without hurting each other (to much).
