We have 3 cats and a Siberian Husky. They have, somehow, learned to all get along. It's nothing that we did, however. When we brought our dog home two years ago he had never seen a cat before and our cats had never seen a dog before! The first few days were pretty stressful because I was certain the dog was going to kill the cats!!!! Nothing bad happened, though. The worst thing that did happen was that the dog got his muzzle scratched a couple of times from the cats batting at him with their claws. Nothing that even drew blood, though. Now, after two years, they still tussle once in a while, but for the most part they just ignore one another. If Coby (the dog) sees one of the cats by his food or water bowl he will go up to them and bark at them -- like, "get away from my stuff!" Once in a while, just for fun, I think, one of our cats will purposely come up to him and cuff him on the head and then just walk away like she's gotten away with something!!!! The cats will hiss at him if he gets too close to them. It's comical to watch them interact with each other! Sounds like you have a houseful!!! We have 3 cats and a Siberian Husky.
