We just adopted a 6 pound Pomeranian mix from the Humane Society. We are bringing her into a home with 4 cats and a German Shepherd.
All the cats and the GSD get along fine. The youngest cat Ginger (she's a year) has never had and issue with the GSD and they are really buddies. She'll bonk on him, lay by him etc. Well, for some reason, Ginger is afraid of the Pomeranian. Since we got the Pom, Ginger spends most of her time in the garage.
I feel bad. I"m just shocked because Ginger has no issue with the 90 pound GSD, but she runs and hides from the 6 pound Pom!
Do you think she'll get used to the new little dog? How long do you think it will take? When should I get worried?
thanks!
