2 weeks and two days after bringing Noel and Marley home we have relative success. The boxer will just walk by them and look, his eyes get kinda wide, and then he just goes on his way. Marley will approach both dogs now and Bob, the boxer, actually walked over and shared his water bowl with them. All 3 drinking water at the same time. Lola, the pug, will still give a little chase if the kittens run by but it doesnt go far becuase Noel takes no crap from either of the dogs. Marley wont run very far either he has learned that Lola is not really a threat outside of being run into by her as she tries to stop. The kittens are still a little distrustfull of Bob but they dont freak out if he comes over they just dont take thier eyes off of him until he gets to where he is going.
I say relative becuase the boxer is still very curious of his two new housemates and will try to get closer than they want him to. Marley is for the most part ok with it, they were touching noses earlier today. Noel really doesnt want him too close to her. She will do an air swat with the claw if he gets much closer than a few feet if he is looking at her. If he isnt looking at her, example the water bowl, she doesnt seem to mind if he brushs her as he walks past. Its the stareing that she doesnt like.
Will post pics of the crew soon...

Wow! That was fast! It took mine a bit longer. Whisper is not afraid of Thor in the least...I don't know if that's good or not. Kiki still hates Thor almost 6 months later.


However, Kiki and Whisper are now getting along great. They still have little spats, but I've caught them bathing each other a few times.
