We've just adopted a 5-month-old kitten from the RSPCA (she was meant to be fine with dogs). However, it turns out she's terrified of our dog, and he's having a hard time staying calm. We shouldn't have introduced them to each other so quickly. The kitten has already scratched our dog. What should we do to settle things down so they both feel safe? Is there any hope that things will improve if we try a more gradual introduction? What steps should we take? Thanks for your help.
