Question 7
Can cats and dogs co-exist peacefully with small animals,
such as birds and fish?
Yes, usually. Dogs and cats can be taught that birds and fish are not toys or lunch, but it does take some diligence on the pet owner's part. And, since it is always easier to train a puppy or kitten than to re-train an older pet, consider getting the fish or the bird first. Another option: keep the bird or fish in a room or area of the house that is off limits to cats and dog.
