HELP!!! DH's puppy hates my cat!

Blue's like the best cat ever, and he just stares at Brooklyn. Chat Icon

Blue even tries to play with the puppy...he went over to him to sniff him and Brooklyn just started crying...LOUD.

He's terrified. Chat Icon

I've never had a dog before (as an adult)...what do I do?

I want them to get along...they're brothers!! Chat Icon

I'm uploading now.

Do I just let him scream when Blue comes near him?

Do I have to watch him all the time when around Blue.

I knew Blue would be awesome...I had no idea the puppy wouldn't want to play. Chat Icon

Its going to take time. Start by your husband holding the cat and you holding the pup and bringing them close so he can smell blue

give him some time sweetie. Blue has been around the house and you guys for a long time. everything is new to the puppy, he's probably scared and confused, poor guy. he'll be ok though! I promise Chat Icon

Re: HELP!!! DH's puppy hates my cat!

Thanks for the advice and hugs guys!! Chat Icon

Jessica - I went in a room and held Brooklyn while Blue was in the same room. Whenever Brooklyn would see Blue he would yelp...so I started soothing him and talking to him and saying "good boy"...and then he calmed down. But if I moved or if he looked at Blue again, he would start crying...

It's not that Blue's used to the house...it's that the puppy is scared of him.

I have to give extra love to Blue too...he's sensitive.

It'll take some time...please please don't forget to reassure Blue that it's ok too. Someone is invading his home.

Brooklyn might be experiencing separation anxiety from siblings or just baby fear of something he doesn't know or recognize.

Took Bailey about 2 weeks to warm up to Bubba.
