Are Fila Brasileiros good with cats?

No, most Fila Brasileiors aren’t good with cats unless they were raised alongside them from early puppyhood. They can be prone to guarding resources and have a notably strong prey drive, which can create a dangerous living environment for household cats. 

It is certainly possible for Fila Brasileiros to live peacefully with their feline counterparts, but early socialization is critical. If you have kitties at home and are considering adopting an adult Fila or older puppy, it’s crucial to confirm if the they are friendly with cats before finalizing the adoption.
