How do i get them to like each other? Our cats are eight and my dog is one and they've never been closer than 5 feet to each other. My dog likes to chase the cats sometimes, but other times she stands there and just looks at them. Every once in awhile the cats get curious and sneek in the room to look at her, but usually they run as soon as they see her which doesnt help cuz then she chases them. I would really like them to be friends but i dont know what to do. Any suggestions?
