Cats And Dogs Can Get Along |
by Emilija Spirkoska |
Animals are fun to be around and in my opinion each household should have at least a couple in the house.
But, can a cat and dog get along? You might think that all cats and dogs do is fight, but that’s not true. Cats and dogs can get along well and if you ask most people they would probably say that each family should have at least one of each pet.
Even though the old saying, “fighting like cats and dogs” is in fact true, we must say that there are also examples of a dog-cat true friendship.
And because at times it can be rough teaching your dog and cat to like each other we decided to share some basic steps on how to train your cat and dog to get along without harming each other.
First of all, you should know that you will probably have less problems if you have a puppy rather than a dog. Because the puppy will see the cat as part of the gang :).
Also if your dog is aggressive then don't even try to train him/her to get along with a cat. It's just won't happen.
Last but not least, if your cat is a small kitten or is elderly or handicapped that means that it can easily get hurt around a „hyper“ dog.
However, here are some tips to help train your cat and dog to get along without harming each other.
1. You should start out slow. Animals too need time to get to know each other. And if you rush them into things they will probably end up unhappy and will eventually start fighting. 2. Give your dog a treat each time it acts friendly around your cat . Saying nice things like “Yay, you are a good dog; look who’s here; Kitty is here” will also make the atmosphere more friendly. Also you should try to sound happy each time you say those things. 3. Hold your cat in your arms and then tell your friend to bring your dog into the room. Slowly, bring them close together until they are comfortable enough with each other to sit still. 4. Last but not least, rub a towel on your dog and place near the cat, so that the cat can get used to the smell and try to accept it.
Hopefully, after doing all these steps your cat and dog will start to get along and live a happy life.
However that’s might not always be the case. Just check out these two! At least they don't end up hurting each other.
