[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 278857, member: 3444"] No idea since we have no dogs. Can you crate the dogs for a short time while the cat's in the same room? That would give the cat a chance to safely investigate on its terms without fear of being attacked. And then I'd think you'll have to also work on the dogs to teach them that the cat is off-limits. I'll bet eventually they'll all settle down, but it may take some time. My mom brings her dog over here periodically -- my cats are not afraid of it -- cautious and ready to smack it if it gets too close, but they don't run. Probably because they are on THEIR turf. I think your new cat needs to feel really safe in its new home before that will happen. [/QUOTE]
