Even before, food was their source of conflict. Between the two, dogs were domesticated first because they were used as hunting companions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>Dogs became hunting companions because of their excellent skills in tracking and catching prey. Cats on the other hand soon became domesticated after humans saw their skills at killing rodents and insects, their swift reflexes set them apart from dogs. Put these hunters in one roof and chaos may ensue.&nbsp; However, it is not entirely impossible for cats and dogs to get along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Getting_To_Know_You_Stage\"><\/span>The Getting To Know You Stage<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Cats usually take two or three weeks to get used to the dog. Getting used to the dog does not necessarily mean that they are getting along right away, it means that your cat can tolerate the presence of your dog. According to a study conducted by Jessica Thompson, Daniel Mills and Sophie Hall, cats are most likely to be the determinant whether this relationship is meant to be or destined to fail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cats are very territorial and need a little more time adjusting to a new home, family or sibling. According to the study, cats and dogs&#8217; success in molding friendship is defined by the following: the cat&#8217;s age at which s\/he was introduced to the dog, cat sharing food with the dog and picking up a toy to show the dog. The study showed that cats can tolerate your dog if your cat is younger, older cats take time to accept the dogs\u2019 presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Road_to_A_Peaceful_Home\"><\/span>Road to A Peaceful Home<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Separate_your_dog_and_cat_through_a_barrier\"><\/span>1.&nbsp;&nbsp; Separate your dog and cat through a barrier<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"a\"><li>It is very important to separate them first, cats tend to be aggressive when his\/her personal space is trespassed. However, it is also important for them to observe each other. Cats are great observers, you think s\/he may be snobbish but in reality s\/he are just observing.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Introduce_their_scents_to_each_other\"><\/span>2.&nbsp;&nbsp; Introduce their scents to each other<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"a\"><li>Canines and Felines rely their judgment based on their instincts and impeccable sensitivity to scents. The second step to the getting to know you stage is to make them adjust to the smell. You can place a rag on each side of the barrier and exchange the rags the next day. Another way for them to get introduced is through food! You can place their food bowls near the barrier, at least 1.5 meters away from the barrier. Next, move the bowls closer to the barrier by 2 inches every day until their bowls are near enough that they can sense and smell each other even though they are still separated by a barrier.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Wait_for_them_to_approach_each_other_through_the_barrier\"><\/span>3.&nbsp;&nbsp; Wait for them to approach each other through the barrier<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"a\"><li>After some time, either your cat or dog will closely monitor what the other is doing. Your cat will be more cautious but is curious enough to check your dog out, s\/he will still observe the dog through the barrier but s\/he\u2019ll move closer to it. For the first 2 weeks, your cat will observe and continue to sniff your dog\u2019s smell.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Train_your_dog_the_basic_dog_tricks_especially_sit_and_stay\"><\/span>4.&nbsp;&nbsp; Train your dog the basic dog tricks, especially \u201csit\u201d and \u201cstay<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"a\"><li>It is also very important to train your dog. They tend to be more active compared to our lovely feline friends. By training your dog to sit or stay, you can stop roughhousing from happening especially that they have different ways to play. Dogs like to bite and tug, while cats like to hit and bite. Your dog may unknowingly hurt your cat while playing.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Give_your_cat_a_space_where_she_can_be_alone\"><\/span>5.&nbsp;&nbsp; Give your cat a space where s\/he can be alone<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"a\"><li>Cats are very space loving animals, they tend to curl up in one corner where they feel safe. This space should have their own litter box and an area that they can scratch. You can also place a box where they can play on their own and rest. It is important to note that this area should be a no-no area to your canine. Sometimes your cat would feel stressed out because s\/he can\u2019t match your dog\u2019s energy. Like humans, cats like to have a little alone time with their thoughts and sometimes plan how to destroy and dominate the world.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Common_Questions\"><\/span>Common Questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1594018249307\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What are the reasons why the cat takes so long to get used to the dog?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">As was written in the study conducted by Thompson, Mills and Hall, cats are threatened by dogs. The study showed that cats tend to be more cautious because they haven\u2019t been domesticated that long unlike dogs. <br\/>It can also be attributed to how the owner perceives cats and dogs due to the difference in size, cats can be perceived as more vulnerable thus owners usually tend to the needs of their feline friends. It is possible that both of them are still getting used to the fact that they have to live under one roof, but owners are more perceptive of the discomfort the felines feel because they are smaller.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1594018268755\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What activities can they do together?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">A great activity for both cats and dogs is fetch.
