    She will probably get over her fear once she figures out what "that thing" is. You can help her associate good things with the kitten. Take a towel and rub the kitty with it very well. Then put the towel on the floor underneath Delilah's food/water dish. Delilah might be concerned at first, but she'll eventually eat and drink. She will become familiar with No Name's smell and associate it with good things. But, don't force it. Delilah will introduce herself gradually.

    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.

    It's best to introduce new pets slowly to prevent them from getting off to a bad start by someone attacking or fighting or in your dog's case scaring them, LOL. Poor big baby. Kuhio has some good suggestions to help. It just takes time.

    Congrats on your new adorable kitten!

    She's been running around making herself at home..she's FULL of energy and I love her personality. I caught her trying to get into a package of resees Swoops...so I have been calling her Swoop..it might change, but I like it. Delilah's getting better, I caught her giving Swoop kisses..its adorable..she is just afraid when swoop makes sudden quick movements lol.

    Thanks Anita Cholaine for the awesome siggy!

    Oh my gosh, she is absolutely A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E!!!!!!!!

    It will take Delilah time to get use to the kitty's fast movements. It sounds like it has been a good intro with Delilah giving her kisses already. Too cute for words.

    Congratulations on your new girl.

    Of course you know that you will have to keep us updated on a regular basis on how Delilah and kitty are getting along and especially more pictures.

    I think Swoops is a cute name. It sure is different.

    Also, don't forget now that you will have to kittenproof your home.

    The German Shepherd is afraid of the Kittie. Hope Delilah doesn't have any GSD friends that find out about this. lol I'm sure she will adjust.

    Your Shepherd is probably a little nervous as she cant figure out what the Kitten is going to do next.
    I would keep an eye on them, until you know there wont be an accident.
