Cats and dogs
On Sunday, it will have been 3 months since I brought a cat (Annie Oakley, aka Border Kitty) into the mix with my 2 border collies, Cowboy and Tess.
We took the introductions very slowly and gradually. And now, it looks like it's all paid off.
I knew we'd made progress last night when I walked into the living room and saw them all, either sleeping/resting and/or hanging out together, within relatively close proximity to each other.

Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.

Josh Grossberg grew up with the usual array of animals: goldfish, dogs, hamsters, parakeets and turtles. He now owns the loudest dog in the South Bay(Video: Rocket the Dog) and is the least popular person on his block. He spends his free time in dog parks, pet shops and always has an extra plastic bag in his pocket just in case. He also has a cat.

It doesn't get more peaceful than that! And of course Annie has perched herself above the k9 population of the house. But they all look very satisfied.
OH MY GOD!!! They are soo cute! And Annie O. is such a cutie pie!
Oh, don't they look so peaceful together. Amos and Callie each take a back end of the sofa. Border Kitty looks comfy
