I'd love some advice on socializing my 6-month old puppy with the new cat my roommate plans to adopt in about two weeks. Here are some details:
My dog is a 6-month old mutt (Jack Russell/Silky Terrier cross) who is pretty sociable but has never met any cats. My roommate will be adopting from a shelter and is looking for a 1-2 year-old cat who has been around dogs before.
I'm looking for advice on how to prep my dog in the next two weeks, how we should conduct the 'big introduction,' and any tips for living with the two of them in the future.
I know you can't force dogs and cats to be best friends, but I certainly don't want either one to be scared of the other!!

P.S. Here's a picture of my little guy in a Santa hat :-)
