• The cat will be fine, mine used to studiously ignore/sit on/batter three bloody great labradors (all of which were pups when I got them). Dogs have no idea of scale and live in the absolute certainty that 'their' cat is bigger and tougher than they are.

    Keeping upstairs dog-free is the only way to go, farting pooches on your bed is the immediate consequence of letting the bastards upstairs. We have a child gate at the bottom of the stairs.
