Re: dogs

Looks like we will keep both. I don't think Alta would remember to put him on a leash. Besides, it's not worth the risk of her tripping over him & breaking something. Last year it might have been OK. She's just suddenly very frail. Cat is definitely asserting herself as reigning queen. Goes into predator mode when they get bouncy or nosy. Takes herself to a quiet corner when they get to her. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kitty" <kmrsy@comcast.net>

Judy,
So you are keeping the male, the female, or both? I bet the cat will come around unless she's quite old. Friends of mine got a frazzlingly boisterous small dog and it is just too rough on the old cat who has to hide in a room all the time unless they put the dog outside.
Dogs can be fun but they need training. Sounds like a fun addition to your family.

I now have 2 dogs in my life. Friend needed to simplify her life and find a home for 2 of her 3 miniature Pinschers. I hadn't had a dog for 20+ years. I'd 
forgotten how needy they are. My cats have spoiled me, I see. Not used to
giving constant reinforcement to my pets. After 2 weeks they are settling down and my cat is getting braver. She swatted a nose or 2 this morning instead of 
hiding when they got too nosy with her.
The grandkids love them & my husband is getting used to them. He told his mom we're keeping them, so I guess we are. She wants the smaller one. It might work. He's calm, stays out from underfoot and listens. The female is only 2 
and very bouncy. Tigger would be a good name for her.
