Home year and a half bitch Jack Russell. In anticipation of the possible "assaults" on the rock, to which I have become accustomed over the year and a half (too active!!! very aggressive!!! not like other dogs!!!), immediately I note that soba with a beautiful balanced psyche. Very friendly to dogs, after meeting immediately offers a joint game-running around, loves almost everyone coming into the house and coming to her on the street, kisses to death :))) Easily remains with other people, the house is not a bully, nothing tears, does not scatter, in a word, a dog-a dream:) Yes, techka ended a month ago, the puppies were not.

And here is to this dream brought something impenetrable.

Kitten brought in late in the evening. Immediately built him an aviary out of an old puppy. Given cautiously to sniff the dog. The first two days the dog almost continuously grumbled and vibrated menacingly. Approached the cage, sniffing, growling menacingly quiet. Dose of petting for the dog doubled. Several times kitty was removed, showed the dog was allowed to sniff under the tail, to lick, and again cleaned. A couple of times kitty tried to touch the paw of a dog, for which he got "verbal".

On the third day of the kitten gently released. The dog followed him around, poked his nose, tried to lick, and occasionally clasped his paws and began to simulate cages. To licking and cages all clear, tried to show him his place in the flock and get rid of the smell. We weren't particularly worried. especially that kitten made the drum, who is there where his licks :)

Today is the fifth day of their stay together. At night and during our absence at home kitten in the cage. When we are at home - we release on free pasture. The dog is a little used to the alien, so much as in the early days, no longer nervous, but still does not admit to the bowl and toys. These days several times been incidents when trying to sniff the empty dog bowl or ball, the kitten was pressed to the floor and barked much. Once even scratched his nose :(

Prior to this, the dog repeatedly communicated with cats, but adults who a couple of times on her sikov, went somewhere higher and away. And then the kitten demanding games and attention, which itself fits and climbs everywhere.

Actually, it was anamnesis. And now questions. Tell us about their stories joint residence dogs and cats, please. How are they used to each other? Did you do something for this purpose?

In short, as to make it clear to the dog that the stranger is not the enemy, and a full member of the family?
It's been a month, and our girl still can not get used to the new family member. Well don't get used-he wants to play with her, he to her, and she hisses. Bowls from the beginning smashed (the dog in the hallway are, the cat on the windowsill), in this they have no differences. The cat teases the puppy periodically, using the fact that he still can't climb on a chair, sofa, bed, she hangs a tail, he runs, she turns around and hisses. The first week is generally the cat could not see, she at first did not understand who brought it, as I've never seen other animals do. Then she started coming up to us.

But I wonder the cat ever get used to the dog or so and will hiss at him?
The situation in brief: started with the kitten while my husband lived alone for a very long time decided on this step. And recently, unexpectedly for all, it was necessary to return to a parental nest. My mother - in-law has a Rottweiler dog. With childhood she was raised with the cat, but he died from old age, and about year she was the only and the most favorite. The dog is very spoiled by the attention of his mother-in-law, people are very kind and affectionate. But with kochadai as it is not going well. Keep until in different rooms, but soon to be born baby and I can not let Kosha eat and go to the toilet next door to the baby. The cat and the dog seems interesting to meet, but the cat is afraid of the huge size of the dog, and she wants to swallow it :( That's not sure how to be. To give to someone do not want to, it's frightening to think that your beloved red tigers no. But put them in a relationship that was terribly afraid that the dog will simply crush the kitty or will not eat nor go to the toilet. : cry:
Can any of you experts in animal psychology and of the psyche. Or just experienced in this matter. Tell me how to make friends or establish a relationship with your favorite animals.
I must say that the attention the dog the cat is not nearly as cheated.
