My husband and I are going to be getting a Lab this summer as soon as we get grass and a fence put in at our new home. In anticapation of this, I've been kind of worried how my cat, Zoe will react.
We got her from the animal shelter in November 2000. She was a 6 month old stray and thus she's still a little wild at times (slightly aggressive and nervous). Most of the time though, she's a perfect lady who doesn't mind meeting new people. However, she's never been exposed to dogs from what I know.
She's spayed and declawed, but prone to biting.
What's the best way to introduce a puppy into my home without causing either animal too much stress?
Thanks in advance.
