How to make dogs and cats live in peace
In people's minds, cats and dogs are a pair of natural enemies. If they don't get along, they will fight. This is also the case where many families only raise dogs or only cats. But are cats and dogs really so unfriendly? They don't have the chance to become friends. In fact, dogs and cats did not fight from the beginning. It is very simple to raise dogs and cats at the same time. Let's learn about how dogs and cats can live in a friendly manner with the editor.
Chasing cats is one of the fun in almost all dogs' lives. Although they have little confidence in success, they still enjoy it. Most dogs have no malice, and occasionally they catch up with the cat and just scream happily. But cats can be in danger of being frightened, and two running little guys may also mess up furniture, break cups, or even hurt people's knees. The ancestors of dogs were human hunting right-hand men, and today they still retain their hunting nature. Dogs are naturally color blind, but their eyes have thousands of sensory cells to move objects than humans. For some dog breeds that have been used to race, chasing is an innate instinct.
Cats are solitary animals, arrogant and independent, and dogs are solitary animals, outgoing and loving to join in the fun. Their expressions are also very different - cats like to make sweet purrs when expressing happiness, while dogs regard purrs as a warning signal; dogs wag their tails usually mean friendly, while wagging their tails is a way for cats to express dissatisfaction - misunderstandings are inevitable. However, in many families, cats and dogs not only get along well, but also become good friends who are hard to part with.
If you also want to enjoy the joy of having cats and dogs companions at the same time, you should guide them appropriately according to their respective personalities and ages.
Whether cats and dogs can become good neighbors depends on the cat's personality. Relatively speaking, cats are sensitive and timid and do not like parties as much as dogs. They may be frightened (mostly cats scare themselves) or challenge, make threatening sounds, or even slap the dog in the head with their paws. Kittens are more acceptable to dogs and even fall in love with this stupid big companion. Puppies always like to make any possible playmates. The ideal situation is to introduce puppies and cats at the same time. Adult cats who once worked with dogs may also become good friends for adult dogs. Adult dogs can usually face a kitten with a relaxed look, while adult cats are less likely to accept a puppy. As a master, don’t expect an adult cat to take the initiative to play with the dog. Be sure to let your dog learn to relax in this situation.
