We have a cat-19 and got our new dog this week. First few days she's just been aloof and slept as usual but not done downstairs- we put a litter tray upstairs and her food so she didn't need to come down. But today she has pooped in two of the bedrooms. What can I do to introduce them nicely and maybe strike peace between them? Any ideas from those who have introduced a dog into a cat house? She is eating and drinking and asking for food and sleeps most of the day at her ripe old age and seems otherwise ok. I'd love them to get on ideally or for her to wander down again- she spends 90% plus upstairs today anyway and hasn't seemed stressed but clearly is. Please don't attack me here. I've had cats and dogs together the whole time I was living at home but this cat hasn't lived with a dog although has had dog visitors which he ignored or hissed at then stalked off looking annoyed but not scared.
