[quote=Anonymous]I'm sure there are born cat-eaters out there, but I've owned multiple dogs (different breeds) and cats, and I've never had a problem with them getting along if the dog was introduced to an adult cat as a puppy. The cat generally doesn't run from the dog (this is key), and gets its "bluff" in before the dog gets big enough to know any better. Usually one or two "baps" to the nose with very slightly extended claws is enough to make the puppy realize that he doesn't want to mess with the cat. I know you have an older cat, but we did have kitten and a puppy that were raised together, and they would romp and play and wrestle. They would run out of the room with the dog chasing the cat, and come back in with the cat chasing the dog. Visitors would come in and announce "Your dog is killing your cat!" and we say "Nah, they're just playing." [/quote]
