My cats dislike the dogs. They'll tolerate Roxy, but hate Dusty because he chases them. When he catches them, all he wants to do is play. lol.

Growing up, we mixed all sorts of interesting things together. We lived in town, but our backyard was a farm. We had Christy, an Alaskan Malmute-Timber wolf living with what started out to be 2 rabbits and wound up being about 20 , a turtle, and two baby chicks. We also had a cat smurf. They all got along great. In fact, the rabbits would chase Christy and vice versa. At night, the chicks would curl up in Christy's fur to sleep.

One chick got sick and died. The other chick, this is so sad....a stray cat went to pounce on the chick. Christy snatched the chick up in her mouth. She just wanted to save it...it was her motherly instinct. Well, she killed it. She cried and cried and kept nudging the chick with her nose. She wanted to wake it back up.

I was very young, but it was really sad for me as a little girl. As an adult, I'd never mix my dogs with small animals because of that.
