This is my 3 month old male tuxie and my 1 year old female blue heeler/golden retriever mix. Sometimes my dog will chase him but other time they will be “tussling” around like this. Is this fighting or just normal play? Is this safe for my kitten?

One beginner mistake I see all the time is people standing either way too wide or way too narrow.

Too wide and you feel “stable,” but you’re actually stuck. You can’t shift your weight from one leg to the other, so your punches turn into arm shots and your feet are late.

Too narrow and you lose balance the second you throw hard, move, or get touched.

A simple check is to look at the distance between your feet.

Drop your back knee down toward your front foot. If your stance is stretched so far that this feels awkward or way off, your feet are probably too wide.

You want enough space to stay balanced, but not so much that you can’t transfer weight.

Your stance should let you punch, defend, and move without fighting your own feet.

I think he might join zuffa then fight for their belt and try to bring relevance to their belt.
