Hi, Clarebear -- I wish my cat Mr. Fluffy was a gentleman, but he has no use for any human -- except me -- or for any other animals, unless it is a bird (nicely stuffed and roasted to a turn). Since my last post, I have tried Dixieland Dancer's helpful suggestions and THEY ARE WORKING! "Poor Blondie" doesn't get the insides knocked out of him any more. Tuco merely lunges in Blondie's direction, gives a little growl and that's that. Blondie has learned to back off, drop what he has in his mouth, or go belly up. End of conflict. I found that so long as I am consistent, each animal knows what is expected of him/her. Also, I took Tuco for a "test drive" in the car two days ago and he did not mark, or pee, or whatever he was doing. Thank goodness that's improved! Now, if I can just get Fluffy to stop pushing the dogs around . . .:D

Hello Mary,
Thanks for your comments about my cat Ben.
He is a grandad now well what I mean by that is he is old age of 14 years old. He doesn't get along with male cats but doesn't mind sharing his garden with female cats.
I used to have a female King Charles Spaniel called Bonny whom died on New Year Eve 2000 of the age 10 as they only live up to the age of 10.
As I said before Ben doesn't allow cats mainly male cats but he seems to get along fine with female cats and there is this one male cat called Toby whom is very cheeky and hardface who comes into our garden to try and take over our Ben's garden but Ben won't have any of it and chases him but they end up fighting and once he got a cut on his poor little nose which took a while to heal up but its ok now ! anyway My dog was called Bonny and Toby spitted at Bonny and Ben stood up for her at Toby for doing that and he made up run ! lol !
He always seem to care about others esp the lady's and us his family he doesn't put himself first he thinks about his family or either that he is worried about his belly. :D

I am glad things are going better. Keep up the good work! Having harmony in the pack is a great feeling. :D
