Cat Update

[billroper]

Sadly, Sunshine is still terrified of Ruby the Dog. We're working on getting her to be less skittish, but she is really not fond of the big bouncing black dog.

Right now, we're leaving the library door open at night in the hope that she'll wander upstairs. She has done that before, but not lately.

We'll keep trying.

Does Sunshine have a home territory where the dog can't go?

I recommend Jackson Galaxy as a source of cat wisdom. Here's a piece of his on getting cats and dogs to live together.

Yes, the library, but to keep the dog out, we have to keep the door closed, which is not optimum. I'll check out the link, thanks!

In my experience a closed door between them will not work. They need to be able to *see* each other all the time but not actually able to get to each other.
