The love Egyptians had for their cats is something that’s ingrained throughout history. It’s reflected in their art, culture and traditions and they even worshipped a cat-headed goddess called Bastet, who was the goddess of the home and womanhood.

Are you thinking of adding another addition to your family? If you’re considering a new pup, but your clan already has a feline member, it’s worth considering which dog breeds have the potential to be good with cats, as some breeds may not be very suitable for a household with felines! That being said, it’s always worth noting that every individual from each breed will be different and will possess different behavioural traits. So, you can never guarantee a pup from a certain breed will have a particular characteristic. Therefore, we would always suggest introducing your pets to each other properly – ideally at a young age and monitor them closely. You should always make sure your cat has the space to get away from your pup if they want to, as cats are generally less sociable than dogs, and will need time to themselves – especially if they feel overwhelmed or threatened. For more advice on this, it’s best to speak to your vet.
