I wouldn't recommend getting a puppy and a kitten together. The thing to think about is that kittens and puppies both play very hard as I am sure you are aware. Their playing will drive you crazy. You'll think the puppy is hurting the kitten or the kitten is hurting the puppy...constantly! Kittens can be relentless with their tactics even with dogs and their claws are a whole new learning experience that require PRACTICE and the puppy will be the practice target. It wouldn't be so bad but they can sure hurt a puppy's eyes. My experience has been that grown cats (especially young adults) will accept a puppy quite well but they seem to know and understand that a puppy is not a threat. If they want to play they will, and they are selective with the use of their claws because they already learned the use of them. When an adult cat has had enough of a rough puppy, it simply will get up and go somewhere that the puppy cannot get to it.
