I am moving to a new city about 2 hours from here but I am also adopting my brothers 2 Pekingese dogs, Louie and Lotus. Very sweet good natured tiny dogs. (My brother is moving out of the country which is why this is all happening at the same time) My cat Atticus has not had much experience with dogs in fact he has only seen my landlords husky through the kitchen window.(he didn't seem too concerned with the dog)
I am very worried. I have been thinking about this since things started getting planned. So anyways here is my plan Let me know what you think!!
I was thinking of the cat in one vehicle during the move and the dogs in another and when I arrive at my new apartment I put the cat in the bedroom with litter and food and water and the dogs in the bathroom with food and water until all the stuff is brought in...that way they won't get out by mistake and then introducing them through a baby gate at first...and then letting them get to know each other that way for a little while before attempting to try the face to face intro. What do you guys think? Is this going to work? I want to make this as easy as possible on them... I know with the move it will be stressful enough but when you add introducing them it will be even more so.
