We are like 2nd or 3rd interested in a friend's puppy so chance may be small, but I want to understand the dynamic. Two cats, Rocky, 9 yr old female, anxiety with other cats if they want to get close; Clyde 2 yr old male, still pretty active, playful but not a fighter, especially active if he doesn't get to go outside for some reason (both are indoor/outdoor). Rocky will actively avoid Clyde even when he isn't being a PITA. When he is bothering her, she displays classic anxiety behaviors at a moderate level but will never fight. Dog would be a young mix of small breed dogs.
How does this usually go? And special introduction needed?
My thought is that the puppy tries to be friendly and Rocky swats at him, he learns to avoid her and things aren't too bad. I mean, kittens often don't learn to stay away, but puppies usually do???
