Introducing the Cats & Dogs!

The original plan was to wait until Thanksgiving and bring Stamp out to meet the dogs and then after Christmas introduce Zip & Code. But the last 4 times I've opened Gina's bedroom door, Zip has scurried out to explore the rest of the house. I've had the dogs outside each time Zip has done his escape routine. Today I decided to let the dogs in and see how it went. The kittens are as big as GG now, so I figured there was no reason to keep putting it off.

BTW, Stamp did get neutered last week and weighed in at over 8 pounds! He's a really big boy!

Good news! Tater was just interested in meeting the cats - not eating them. As you can see she was quite excited - just watch that tail go!



Porch Boy wasn't quite sure what to make of the cats. Trip totally ignored them. Tater was the only one that tried to engage them, and as you can see here Code & Stamp weren't too sure that they wanted to be engaged...



Zip was more demonstrative with his displeasure, but there were never any claws exposed and rarely any hissing going on.



Tater did respond appropriately when the hissing happened.



All in all, I am quite pleased that all my little critters got along so well.

I am so impressed with your Sweet Tater! She was very friendly with the newcomers. You can't blame the kitties for being a little apprehensive, but Tater took it all in stride. What a sweetie!
