I grew up with a shepard/huskie that would sit and wait for us to give him the "OK" to chase the cat. We did it to give the cat a running start, and he (Champ) would have them cornered or tree in a matter of seconds. He wouldn't hurt them, just try and play with them, and they wanted NOTHING to do with him.
Our house cat would sleep with him at night.
Flash forward some 20 years to Brandy, a MSPCA adoptee, who loved chasing cats and squirrels. She would never get the squirrels, but our cat was another story. She would catch the cat and proceed to try and "play" with it. The cat would literally just "play dead" until the dog would leave him alone.
