As we all know, dogs are a man's best friend, but we do of course have other best friends - like cats, rabbits and for some of us - goldfish. Unfortunately, not all of these friends get along themselves, particularly when housed under one roof, and that's where clever family management comes in!
Just as you'd home arguing youngsters in different bedrooms, it's often wise to provide some segregation. Using cat flaps from Pets at Home, you can provide your cat with a space of their own - a doggy free sanctuary where they can sleep, play and meow to their heart's content, all without disturbance from the family's other furry friend or friend(s).
By picking out a cat flap that is just small enough for kitty to get through and is operated by a magnet or microchip on the collar around their neck, they can be pampered in an exclusive pussy parlour of their own. Set up their eating and sleeping area here to avoid conflict during meals or nap times, and make sure there are plenty of toys around to hold their attention.
This arrangement benefits your pooch too - they don't have to share their space with unwelcome guests, they don't need to guard their toys, and most importantly when you are around, they don't have to share their attention. Try and ensure their space equally remains a cat-free area, so that they can munch their lunch, wag their tail and play without being distracted.

Of course, we should always remember that not all canines and felines are at war, so while it's nice to give them their own space in case of problems, it can be useful for them to spend some time socializing around each other in order to ultimately realize they are all part of the same family.
