    Are there any other breeds your interested in?
    Most terriers are high prey drive, but I honestly feel that if raised from a young age and are use to each other, I think cats should be fine. Especially with a small breed like a Boston or Yorkie.

    Hi and welcome to PT.

    Funny noone mentioned to ask ME about BOSTONS!!!

    As a mommy to two bostons I have a lot of info on them!

    Boston terriers do get along with cats. Since you will be getting one as a puppy, you shouldn't have any issues. If your puppy tries to pass boundries the cat will certainly let him/her know that enough is enough!

    Boston Terriers are in general a very active breed and love to play ALL THE TIME. Boston terriers tend to be puppy like until they are at least 3 years old.

    They are very loyal companions and love company.

    SOME, not all tend to have several medical issues: they can have patellar luxations (knee pops out of joint, cherry eye, allergies and skin issues).

    If you have the time for a Boston, I think they are the best breed in the world (boy am I biased!).
