Hi there
Just wondering if anyone has experience with bringing a puppy home to resident cats. I have 3 cats (6yo girl, 4yo girl and 1yo boy). None of them have been around dogs and my family wants to get a Chihuahua puppy. The only thing I'm concerned about is the two older girl cats getting stressed out and will hide away but a Chihuahua will be much smaller than them...
Essentially, will my cats hate me? And how long for? I'm thinking a Chihuahua puppy wont be as intimidating as they are smaller than cats fully grown.
Would love some advice about this as I've never had a dog and cats at the same time.
Thank you!
