The little dog is visiting..and he and the cat don't get along at all! The dog always thinks the cat is intruding on his space and vice versa. Just because they had an initial negative interaction when they first met..the dog things the cat is a big troublemaker! Of course he is, but he really isn't mean..The dog is always barking if the cat gets too close..or makes mean noises at him. He got along with my other cat! He gets along with cats at his house! Nico is not that bad!

@rakski It could be worse..they usually don't go that close to each other..but when they do..the cat tries to intimidate the dog by running real close to him. The dog really can't stand his harassment.

Jax gets along with most cats, just not mine!

Yes, I think the dog should be a little more tolerant. As you said, it's the cat's house.

@snowy22315 Cats are territorial, they dislike when someone "invades" their private area.

My dogs have never been exposed to cats so I have no idea how they would react, they sure like other dogs

They would probably chase them initially, but might make friends with them, later on especially if they knew they were your pets.

Our cat hates our dog, but our dog wants to be friends.

I don't think Jax wants to be friends with Nico. He just wants him out of his face!

Yes, the cat is mine. The dog just takes an attitude with him..and the cat, being a cat..tries to get his swats in.

Yes, I hope so..but I think toleration is the best we could hope for at this point.

I hope they can. They are like squabbling siblings when they get together, but I have to say I blame the dog for most of the negativity. The cat is just being a cat.
