Thread: Cats and Dogs

Hi Harro and welcome to the Forum. You must be soooo excited waiting for your kittens .
From my experience it is difficult to know just how the meeting of Albie and the kittens will turn out. He may not react to the kitties like he did to Boots , hopefully he will be most welcoming. Recently I had to introduce my Border collie to my new MC who was not a kitty but 2 years old. I had a room ready into which I was going to put Maisie the MC for a while until she got used to me and her new home. All preparations were needless as Meg, collie, immediately went to the door with great wagging of tail and scratching at door. Whatever she smelled seemed to be OK with her so I did introduce them right away. From the start Meg was fine with Maisie while the latter did keep out of Megs way for some days. Now a month later there is no problem at all except for a little jealousy on Meg,s side, nothing aggresive just pushing her nose for pats if i am giving time to Maise.
So what does my story say that may be helpful? Not a lot except that I think it is impossible to know how such introductions will evolve, there are so many factors to consider. I have had two other introduction experiences and both worked out very well. I think in general there is a good outcome and friendship or at least tolerance results. Take it slowly and I hope to read here that your furry family has settled in happily together.
