The truth about cats and dogs…
A recent news article reported how the resident Downing Street cat, Larry wasn’t especially welcoming of the newest family’s Labrador, Nova. There have apparently been heated exchanges between the two.
This leads me to wonder how introductions were handled. When animals are expected to share the same home, people often don’t consider what that really means in terms of their natural behaviour. Territory and resource guarding can be fairly common. If you’re considering welcoming a canine addition to a family with a resident feline, this guide by International Cat Care may prove useful.
