Just curious those of you who keep both which animal species is usually the dominant one? The one that will usually get its way and bosses the other around? Love to hear ur stories
When I brought Rocky the dog home, I already had two cats. They both showed him who the boss(es) were right away. When DW and I would set on the couch and watch TV, and if the two cats were already sitting there with us, and Rocky tried to join us, they would chase him off. But for some reason they allowed him to get into bed with us at night (as long as he slept by our feet.)Originally Posted by chausiefan

Same here. Otherwise the kitty would get hurt by the biggest dog (he is pushy, he is not aggressive though). The girl animals in the house (beside the kitty) walk ALLL over the huge male for the most part (who is only dominant and pushy with the kitty). So much so, one wouldn't let him get drinks, play with toys, or basically do anything fun. So we had to step in for the poor kid! He deserves to play too! For the most part, the zoo gets along really well with a little direction from usOriginally Posted by GoldenKitty45
Of course DH and I ARE the pack leaders and she knows it. She's allowed to some extent on bossing the cats - usually breaks up their squabbles like a big sister
