Re: Sunday Social - cats and dogs

We have always had golden retrievers and cats. Our Rainbow Bridge goldens Michelob and Genesee were terrified of our male cat Spot. He terrorized them and would swat them as much as possible. So they gave him wide berth in the house and would shake in fear if he sauntered up next to them and rubbed against them when they were laying on the floor. Now our goldens Stormy and Buddy (both 13 years old) live with three cats Mistletoe, Bob and King Phu. Mistletoe and Bob are bother 12 and have grown up with the goldens. They all love each other and tend to sleep all close together, especially in the winter. The youngest cat Phu is only 4 years old and came to us as a rescue when he was about 4 months old. He likes to stir things up from time to time and swat the goldens tails!

Re: Sunday Social - cats and dogs

Our goldens have always gotten along with the cats. I currently have one cat, Chloe, who rules the roost. In fact, she will lay on the large dog bed and my silly male golden, Gage, will put his butt in the cat bed and then sprawl the rest of him out on the floor. My female golden, Claire, will just whine and look at me until I get up and move the cat...cracks me up. They outweigh her by 55-60 lbs! too funny.
