The dog seems friendly towards the cat but the cat is not. I am afraid my cat will run away - we have had him for 5 years from a kitten.

Keep giving your CAT a ton of affection so he doesn’t think he is “replaced.” Once he sees that your love for him hasn’t changed…he will become friendly with the new pup. Patti
Keep the cat indoors of course. Monitor their behavior towards each other for a while. It can take up to a few weeks for animals to totally get used to each other. If it’s not working out, then sadly I’d say find the dog another home. You had the cat first. Your cat might very well rebel and run away. Christina
