My person's cat has been here for almost 3 months and still freaks out at my dogs who are not trying to bother him. He mostly stays upstairs where the dogs don't go -but he is a people cat. I go up and sit with him -but if he would just not hiss and run every time he sees the dogs - it would be more pleasant for me.
He is not asking himself the right questions - like - how can I make SD happier AND get more attention.
