Pro tip: If your cat is used to pellet litter, switch to Cats Best Nature Gold.

This stuff is amazing!

We were using a bag a week of Tesco own brand wood pellet litter (£3.50). Wet pellets eventually get crushed in to sawdust, and it didn't do a good job of odour absorption.

Switched to Nature Gold off the back of this post.

It clumps wee up amazingly, so easy to scoop and sift the clean pellets back in to the tray, and it can be flushed down the loo (our tray is next to the toilet, win!).

So whilst it is more expensive initially, the fact that I can remove soiled litter without wasting any clean litter means it will go further.

Very happy customer! :)

In that case, you can't have a cat petrified to come downstairs.
You NEED to force the issue and in your presence have both animals in the same room. If need be, put the dog on a leash so he can't get close to the cat.

Another method is to keep the 2 animals separated by a door, slightly ajar. So that both animals can sniff eachother (1st introduction).

Another way is to get the blankets for both animals and switch them around, so that they both get used to the smell (pre-introduction).

Basically, you have to make the judgement call yourself. There is no wrong or right. You have to make the decision yourself.

Also, do not ever trust 100% an animal to behave itself. An animal can turn. Even the softest/cutest dog can maul a cat to death (or other small animal) to death.

Asked for some advice earlier in the thread about bringing the family dog into my home with my cat and just wanted to say thanks for the advice!

What I did was get a cushion that the dog had been sleeping on 2 weeks in advance of the move. Then fed Kitty her treats off it in the hope she would get used to the smell and associate it with nice things. And this seems to have done the trick!

Admittedly they are not best buddies, there is still hissing if the dog gets too close to the cat but they will happily relax and fall asleep in close proximity to each other. Where as before the cat just hid upstairs until the dog left to go home. It's early days though and I'm very happy with the way things are going. :D
 
Love the black cats. Percy is indeed a great colour.

Bought an Acticat playground on the basis of this thread (can't go wrong for a fiver) and the cats love it..they sit and lie either side treating it a bit like swingball on the floor. Too cool. Shame they sent a pink one, but at least its only semi visible under the coffee table.
 
Yay, more Winston pics and vids!! He is so adorable. :D:D:D

On a side note. I got a couple of those Kong toys for our cats on Friday and they have'nt left them alone. We got the crinkly sound one and the catnip one. For less than £7 they were a cracking buy. Thanks for the recommendation. :D
