In reply to Maria. Some cats act more like dogs and some dogs act more like cats. I'm glad they can all get along :)

I stayed with some friends once, they had 3 cats and 1 dog. When the owner, my friend, took the dog for a walk, the cats walked along with them, every time the dog and my friend stopped, the cats stopped and waited for them to continue,, they even went into the woods with them.

It was quite funny to watch them, like a family outing 🙂

Hi! We have a now 11 week old lab/border collie mix. We also have two cats. Since we brought her home at 8 weeks old she will not stop chasing them! She behaves just like the cattle dogs I’ve seen, trying to herd them. The first two weeks we had a baby gate up so the cats could jump it and stay away from her. Then last week we took the gate down and hoped for the best. Now the cats spend all of their time in the basement since the puppy as of yet won’t go down the stairs. Should we keep the cats out of the basement and force then to interact more? I feel horrible they are down there all day with no contact with us! Is there any hope they’ll eventually learn to stay in the same room together? I’m seriously starting to think of rehoming her 🙁
