Hello everyone!!
I just got my little girl cat, Angel about a week ago from Cat's Haven Shelter- She is 6 months old. We've tried to introduce her slowly to the 2 dogs we have,, but it doesn't go well...
Kodi our puppy who is 16 weeks,, is too hyper so we don't even try it..
Sheba is 15 months old and we tried introducing them on Thursday night.. Me and Angel and my daughter who is 4 sat behind the baby gate with Angel.. And my husband sat on the other side holding Sheba back on a leash. Now Sheba is a Rottweiler, and almost 70 lbs. She's my sweetheart,, but she can be quite loud with her barking and agression,, especially since she doesn't know what Angel is..
Angel freaked out,, and sat their and hissed adn cried, and swatted at Sheba several times, as Sheba cried and barked at Angel.
I don't know what else to do.. Do I keep this up?? or am I doing this wrong?? Please help!!!!!!!! I love Sheba and Angel very much.. I just don't want Angel to get hurt,, or to hurt Sheba either... I want them to get along..
Thanks for you help!!
Heather
