Tolerant cat or maybe not so smart?
I'd say my kitty is very tolerant of my pup, Clover. I don't really know a lot about cat behavior, the dogs never bothered the cats before I got Clover. Clover will nibble at the cat and to me it seems like she is being a bother. Sometimes when she is nibbling he will start to clean her face. She never hurts him, but she can get a little pushy. I try to separate them but the cat just comes back....I'd figure he would just jump away from her, but he always just sits there. Sometime he'll "fight" back. How can I tell if this is really bothering him? Sometimes I think they're playing together and sometimes I think she is annoying him.
Do you think Shadow is just playing with her, or could he be really frustrated with her? How could I tell? I've honestly never seen this cat hiss, or get upset over ANYTHING though. He even likes going to the vet :rolleyes: Cats come to the door? He just looks at it. He is a very silly cat.
I'm just not sure if I should keep breaking them up or if he can handle himself. Like I said, she never hurts him, I think she thinks he is a dog. Sometimes she brings him a tug toy to play with....
