so much stupid in this thread.
1) unless your dog is use to cats, its going to go after cats. you can not undo evolution. Spike eats Tom, Tom eats Jerry. tell people to keep cats out of your yard and get a "Beware of Dog" sign, for your yard.
2) Cats belong in the house, anyone that lets their cat run outside is a fucking idiot, and deserves whatever happens to their cat (be it a dog, or a car, or a racoon, or abduction, or even another cat since they fight each other ALL THE TIME).

This.
Anyone who truly loves their cats will keep them indoors. They tend to live 2-3 times longer this way, because cats do crazystupid things like this.
And don't think this makes me a cat hater. I love cats, and would probably choose a cat over a dog 9 days a week. But the whole socialization thing is a two-way street. I guarantee had the cat acted differently, it would probably be alive.
Anyway, sorry to hear about your drama. It's a sad situation all around. I hope it turns out alright. I would suggest the animals of both homes get to know each other in controlled settings. The more unfamiliar they are with each other, the more likely things like this will happen.
