Old Dog New Cat

[Jacquiboss&scoop]

Hi

I am after some Ideas to help my 4 year old cattle dog cross settle with a new cat in the house

A little bit of background

New cat is around 5 months and is not frightened of dogs now

he has been with us for a month and a half and is quite a relaxed if playful personality

We have 2 other dogs the rottie plays with the new cat a little but mostly pays little attention to him

the old staffy mostly ignores him , gentle paw taps from puss are tolerated jumping on the old dogs head trying to get him to play gets him roared at ( like old dog with a pup who has no manners )

All the dogs have lived with a cat before now

now the problem , the other dogs have accepted that puss is now part of the landscape but Keisha cannot settle , she MUST eye him constantly ,

She must know where he is

She must constantly be on top of him ,

Our evenings used to be dogs and our old cat in with us relaxing , now keisha is on a constant down stay inside to get her to settle

She appears to be a little scared of him and fasinated at the same time

Can any one give me some Ideas to stop the obsession with the puss ?

thanks
