I currently have 2 unrelated cats, who just about tolerate each other. Orlando is, naturally, Orange. He's very frendly to us, but avoids other people. Primrose is a bit elderly now. She's a perfect Black and white jellicle and shouts at us when she wants an improvement in the service provided. She doesn't really like people at all.
We also have 2 italian greyhoundds. Descended from my year 2000 Crufts first place winner, Minka. Gus was born that year, so he's getting on too. His daughter Molly is about 7. Neither of these has been a show dog. I lost my last show dog just over a year ago. Gus's mother Pippi, aged 17 years 2 months.
We also feed the wildbirs and have a little woodmouse living on our patio. When the weather is bad, I put food out for her. The grandchildren love to catch sight of "Mousie" She's so pretty. If the IGs see her, they remember they are sighhounds and bark like crazy.out of the patio door. they don't lok for her if they're outside. I bet if they saw her, they'd run back in and bark at the patio door.
Cats and dogs rub along together. in fact Molly and Orlando get on quite well.
