My cat is well behaved, but she’s afraid of dogs. My cat is afraid of the dog because the dog is licking my cat daily. My dog is 10 months old and my cat is a year and 6 months old. My family will eat chicken for example, we will eat quick if we don’t give bone to dog he will bite my mom. If we have a dinner the dog’s lower jaw is on the table
