cat and new puppy

Question
I have had my cat "meow-meows" for 4 years now.  He is strictly an inside cat.  We just got a puppy 3 months ago and my cat still isn't ajusted to the new addition.  How is the best way to help my kitty learn to love the new puppy?

Answer
Hi Mindy,

It's not so much as teaching your cat to love the puppy as you want to teach the puppy to respect the cat. A puppy is a bundle of "what's that"! And a cat is a great mystery that needs to be investigated. You need to control the puppy when the cat is in the room. As the pup gets older and calms down he and the cat will come to terms with each other. Here's a good little link that explains how to introduce the two. But you already have them together so gather a few tips from it.

Give your cat time and a little peace away from the pup. They will be fine with a little time. Good Luck.
