Cat and dog problem?


I have male dog and a female cat. The problem is that my cat nurses my dog, a male dog! What can I do to stop this? I am being totally serious. Thank you and real advice only please.

Hi there...consider using some Grannick's Bitter Apple http://www.grannicks.com which is found at most pet stores worldwide. It's a non-toxic deterrent that you spritz on the areas where you would like to discourage undesirable behaviours.

Additionally, whenever you capture the kitty trying to nurse on your dog try to redirect kitty to play with a toy. Over time the habit will extinguish itself as you are training a new habit and helping forget an old one.

Some people have also found a product called the Catsifier is another suitable alternative for cats who like to nurse: http://www.catsifier.com/

i had the same problem with my male dog and male cat.. my cat just grew out of it.. putting something with a bad taste on your dog isn't fair to the dog when it goes to groom itself..
