Cats and dogs have a reputation as “best enemies” that stick to their skin. But when they have to live under the same roof, cohabitation can sometimes hold pleasant surprises.
It’s hard to imagine that a feline and a dog can be so close that they stick together all day long.
It is often difficult to introduce one to a house when the other has already lived there for a long time. In fact, cats are generally unforgiving and won’t give their new canine roommate a chance if the first contact goes wrong. It is therefore necessary to arm yourself with patience and strategy in order not to break connections from the start.
But animals have already proven to us more than once how capable they are of breaking codes.
