Our cats all hate the dog - Page 2

I'm glad that Molly is back in the house with you. I had a similar situation and had to rehome the new cat because my resident cat couldn't adjust to having another cat in the house and ended up getting very ill from the stress. She has adjusted to all of my dogs but there have been dogs who have spent time crated during the day/evening so that I could spend quality time with the cat. I also work hard to train my dogs not to to chase the cat even if that means the dogs spends a lot of time on leash in the house.

I have a 6 yr old GSD. The cat is fine provided he does not run because Panzer wants to play chase w/him. He wouldn't hurt the cat, however, from the cat's perspective a 100lb dog running after him is pretty scary. If only I could convince the cat not to run. That would be like calling the cat and having him come everytime
