cat and dog living together

The Orozcos have two pets -- a cat and a dog. The dog, a stubborn puppy mutt of tremendous cuteness and softness, found his world shattered with the kitten. According to Lois, the kitten of seven months is in heat and was howling to go out to mate with the males that could smell her. I hope that she gets fixed, as the kitten doesn't need kittens of her own. The house doesn't need thousands of kittens, which would happen.
