What adjustments do you make to a "typical" integration plan when the cat doesn't make himself scarce?
In this Dog and Cat Chat, Melissa and I come up with a plan to make Gem and Bart's interactions more predictable after a chase that ended with the cat in the dog's mouth 😲
What you'll hear in this episode:
- why letting a bold cat decide when to see the dog might not be the best idea
- how important it is to stop and congratulate yourselves on reaching a mini-milestone (because the journey to coexistence can be long)!
- what kinds of setups to do when the dog is more freaked out than the cat
- why you can't be one-and-done with a setup (even if your first attempt goes super smoothly)
