One of my best friends have adopted two retired racing greyhounds. They make lovely companions. They are very gentle giants. The cats will eventually come out.

I have a friend who adopted a retired greyhound, she has another dog and two cats. They all get along but it did take some time for the cats to adjust. They are indoor cats and they like to eat so they came out at feeding time and finally decided to show the greyhound who's the boss.

My dad raised greyhounds when we were growing up and I have a rescue. They are the sweetest and most laid back dogs. Just regular couch potatoes. And I have cats. And she could care less. Congratulations!

The cats will adjust, it just takes a little time, help him not to think the streaking animal he sees is a mechanical rabbit! Thanks for adopting him!

I did see one of the cats last night. I caught her sitting on the couch staring at Buzz. They had a staring contest for a few minutes and Buzz decided to go see the kitty. He wasn't chasing after her just curious. Needless to say, the cat took off and hid. I guess at least one of the cats is getting braver. I put his muzzle on him if I think the cats will show themselves. I don't want to take chances. I also muzzle him when I go out. I don't think that will be necessary once they get used to each other.
