Moby has not only been brave and noble with Spike the Dog from next door, but also with a walker with a large puppy, and the neighbor from the other side who is dogsitting Gizmo, for a friend. Moby deigns to greet them as well. D got to experience a Greeting with Spike and Moby yesterday. Something to see, cat just walks up, nose-kiss to dog, then goes about cat-business. D and Neighbor still amazed.
We would not have predicted this.
Although we often figured that Moby might be OK with a large, placid dog. In no small part because Dog would be furry, warm and lumpy, therefore a good place to nap. Hoping someday to be in a position to rescue a good dog. Not this year, due to tax issue. But, well, more likely, now that we've seen Moby seem to rather like dogs, at some distance. Spike tried a bit too hard a second time, and Moby got his "Ugh, dog breath, dude" look on his body.
The idea of a dog is on the table. Which certainly means we are doomed.

Yes, you are doomed...but in for some good times, with the right dog. Wait until they both want to sleep with you. Oh, fun!

Moby will choose the right one for you all.
I'm not interested in adding a dog to my cat.
Moby will surely be the deciding entity. If and when.
At one point, there were 8 cats and 3 dogs in my mother's house ... believe it or not there only snuggling and no conflict ... or spraying. Amazing!
