| We have a 4 year old cat (female). Over the summer, we adopted a female puppy. Cat hates the puppy. Will she ever come around? |

| If it has been several months and no improvements, probably not. A cat can cause significant injury to a small puppy, so be vigilant with your supervision. |

| What do you mean when you say "hates"? What exactly are you observing? |

+1 Also, are you training the puppy properly and/or does the cat have a puppy-free retreat? |

| The best I would hope for right now is that the cat hangs out in a different room than the dog. Are they actually fighting? |

Team cat. Work with a behaviorist for help. Seriously.
Or get the american vet behaviorist book, decoding your cat. I think it is covered in the dog version also. |

| The cat will come round. When the dog is bigger he will respect her space. |
