Recently, my wife, Misha and I have agreed to start actively looking to adopt a dog from a shelter or foster home. We're a little worried about the interactions that may come with our 3 year old Maine-Coon cat, Tuck...especially since he doesn't know much about the outside world beyond the walls of our condo except the Cat only Vet hospital we take him to for check ups and boarding. He's only had brief run-ins with dogs but from behind the security of his own cage. So his reaction is going to be interesting to a new animal in the house. This is how I think Tuck will react at first. The good news, he'll finally find out what exactly is making that barking noise across the street every morning at around 9am on a consistent basis. Tuck: "Ah...so THAT'S a dog? Tell it to leave me alone.""New Friend" 9/09 Flash CS4 B/W
As much as I hope he doesn't react like that, I love this drawing. :)
ReplyDeleteThere are plenty of guides online to help you gradually introduce your cat to your new dog. It'll require a lot of patience, but it's worth it so you don't freak out poor Tuck!
