My fiance and I moved in together almost a year ago, and he brought with him two dogs, one of whom has gone from nearly blind to completely blind. My cat is almost two and had never been around other animals before these two dogs. Enzo, our blind dog, walks into everything and that includes Noa, my cat. I think she thinks he's aggressive towards her and so when he walks near her she started hissing and swatting him. Recently, she's taken to attacking him if he was just walking by, and this has happened twice when she was sitting on or near me. My fiance intervened by picking Enzo up and she redirected her aggression to him, meaning she seriously scratched his legs and bit him. This is very stressful for everyone and I'm worried she will hurt Enzo as she has her claws. I failed to get her spayed up until yesterday, and I'm hoping this helps with her aggression. In the meanwhile, we're keeping Noa and Enzo separate but this is not a great long term solution. I am getting caps put on her nails in a few days so she's less physically dangerous and I'm exploring anti anxiety meds for her. Does anyone have any other suggestions? I want them to be able to be in the same room together without her being constantly afraid of him and attacking him. Thanks!
