What do you do when your cat and dog have had a fight? How do you help everyone feel safe again?
This week, Naomi chats with Em and Lindsey, members of The Cat and Dog Coexistence Club, about the aftermath of a recent incident between their cat, Fenton, and their dog, Bambi.
Em and Lindsey went out for a few minutes and returned home to their pets no longer separated (and a very stressed Bambi).
Naomi gives some pointers on avoiding this and building up Bambi’s confidence while keeping Fenton entertained and calm.
