If your cat is purely an indoor cat and has particularly sharp claws, you should consider this measure.

When meeting your new poodle for the first time, your cat may be nervous at first. If your poodle gets too close to your cat too quickly, she might lash out at him.

This can cause serious injury to the poodle. Not a good start for a future relationship.

For example, you can have the claws trimmed by a vet near you, or you can do it yourself with the right tools.

When your cat and poodle meet, you want your poodle to be as tame and controlled as possible.

The easiest way to achieve that is quite simple: put your dog on a leash. This allows you to keep the poodle by your side and reduces the risk of your dog pouncing on the cat.

But the most important thing to do on the first encounter is just observe. You don't have to do much at all.

You can first set up a baby or dog guard so that the two can sniff each other for the first time without any problems. Watch how they react.

The same goes for the first time the two are in a room together. They will show you how well they get along or not.

Pay close attention to body language and be prepared to intervene immediately if a fight should arise.
