Social interaction is good for human health, and a new study suggests it could be good for your dog too.
You can also highlight dog breeds that get along well with cats in the same home: Pomeranian, Shih Tzu, Chihuahua, Maltese,
Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Boston Terrier, Chinese Crested, Sheltie, Japanese Chin and Bichon Frize.
If the cat and dog are already adults, then it can be much more difficult to make friends with them. Conduct the first meeting under strict control. It is better to put a muzzle on the dog or put the cat in a carrier. Then let them sniff each other.
Surround the four-legged with affection and care, encourage good behavior; strictly suppress any manifestations of aggression; feed pets from different sides of one closed door so that the animals feel the presence of each other; Keep your dog on a leash while your pets are getting used to socializing.
It will take a long time for the animals to get used to each other's presence. It may take several months. Separate the habitats of the dog and cat. Each of them should always have his own place where he will feel completely safe.
