Grayson will bark only at Pepper they have stare downs and she will hiss and he will bark back in return, I hope they all will get along wonderful and I will have cute pictures of my kitties loving on Grayson! |
When I brought Chiquita my Yorkie home, she was not young she was 9 months old. I have two cats that have lived a life of luxury for 15 years, basically they are spoiled. Even though both my cats don't like company at all let alone something else living with them, they just stayed away from Chiquita until they realized that she is harmless. Both cats are indoor and not declawed, their nails are done every 8 weeks, but still they are big. I was taught a long time ago that if you show fear in any way for your dogs or your cats together they feel it from the master. If you relax when the cats are around the dog believe me they will hiss maybe hunch up but when there is calm they become calm. I used it with Chiquita because the cats were very jealous but low and behold the three of them are living great. Chiquita is very bossy and wants to play all the time, my husband is always worried, me I just relax and watch them do their thing. I always reinforce my love to the girls (my cats) first no matter what. They came first, they are not leaving and the are the love of my life. On the other hand Chiquita is the best friend I ever had in my life, so the bottom line is they are all staying.
I ordered another little yorkie from Chiquita's breeder to keep Chiquita company for the rest of her life, so I think she will lose interest in tormenting my cats.
