Pls give me some advise. We recently moved with our two cats to a new property. They have adapted quite well, and we had decided to get a dog for security reasons. We picked up the puppy this weekend and my cats seems petrified of the puppy (7 week old ridgeback). What can i do to make it easier on them? I have tried introducing them to each other, to no avail. Also, I had my baby cat neutered last year May, when she was 5 months old, and in our new complex there is a tomcat that can' t leave her alone. He comes into our house, bedroom and attacks her in her basket. Last night she went out and the same thing happened. This morning I found her cowering under a tree in our garden, too scared to come inside due to the puppy, and hiding from the other cat. She was so petrified she wouldn' t eat, or even let me touch her. I eventually locked her in our room with her basket, some of her favourite treats and the litter box, hoping she would calm down.
Any advise?
