I, for one, disagree that one pet needs to be rehomed. There are cat trainers out there who can teach you to train your cat so that attention is not on the dog. I think people underestimate the ability of a cat to learn correct behavior. If you can't be bothered with cat training, can't afford it or genuinely are not interested in training the cat, then re-home it. However, cats are affectionate and love humans just as much as dogs do. Therefore, it seems a shame just to give up on a beloved pet out of desperation when there are potentially different options.
Glad to learn that Joey is ok, though. That must have been a very stressful experience. |
