Introducing our Cocker Spaniel Puppy to our Cat

In the beginning it didn’t seem like they would ever get along. Watch to see how their friendship progressed over time!
Bindi is our rescue cat we adopted while living in Sydney. The bell was a temporary measure for a few different reasons for everyone who’s asking about it :)

I am in tears, I had a Cocker spaniel from my childhood to my adulthood, from 11 to 26 years old, the memories that this video just brought me are indescribable, my dog ​​had the same kind of funny reactions that made her unique.

We had an adored Cocker spaniel and cat. They grew to love each other and would stroll round the house together like the best of friends. Penny, the cat, would sometimes lay in ambush for Bramble spaniel and jump out on her - who ever said cats don’t have a sense of humour?! They both loved that game! They shared a bed too. Both gone over the Rainbow Bridge now, but never forgotten. 🐶😻

Everyone loved her, even next door's large white cat who hated dogs, we had cats from allover the neighbourhood come visit her. You only had to think of tuna for tea and she would jump up, run to the kitchen door, sit down and hurry me up. Hubster would say, I guess we're having tuna for tea? I still believe, from her, they read your mind. The way your Winston is sitting at the end is just like she would sit, his face is her face, just a different colour. Love him xxxxx

My Cocker Spaniel Ollie died last year after 13 years. He loved playing with my cat Smudge ( in picture. ) He was a Brindle brown colour. This video put a smile to my face, but there was also a bit of sadness, as it was like seeing Ollie again. The way your dog barked, sounsed just lime mine, and his cheeky Mannerisms, identical to my Ollie. Beautifull video, that I've saved it to my playlist. Love from England.💖

[@vickieclark5931]

It cracked me up when the dog took off after the cat at the beginning of the video and the cat ran for it's life. LOL I couldn't stop laughing. Poor puppy just wanted to play, and that cat was not having any of it. So glad they are starting to bond better. It's always hard introducing a kitten to an older cat, but a puppy is a whole different story. They are so high strung and crazy when they are babies and they have no bounds. I'm glad he learned those bounds as time went on. Those 2 will be best friends.

Aw, thanks for the memories. We had a Cocker puppy and 2 cats. SHE loved those kitties....one was fine, the other was...FORGET IT! Mr. Forget It sadly died too young. We got a new kitten that had been abandoned by mom and was nursed and "raised" by a dog. When we brought Cheddar home and he saw Biscuit (Yes, we name all our pets after food) there was an instant bond. Sadly Biscuit got sick at 9, went blind with many other issues. Cheddar became her "seeing eye kitty". She would nudge Biscuit to her food and water and also outside. Then Cheddar would say by the door (inside cat) and watch for Biscuit to finish her duty and then MEOW like crazy to get her back to the door. We will never, ever forget their bond. LOL, just remembered that I have a profile pick of a cocker that looks like my Biscuit.
