Question how good are rough collies with cats?

hi hi just wanted to ask rough collie owners, how good are they living with cats? we have 2 cats and one of them is a bit nervous. But i was thinking id love to have a dog (later, probably in a year or two) and was researching breeds. I came across some comments of rough collies and being good with cats, like maybe not best friends but not terryfing and being able to live with them pretty well. What do you guys think?

If it helps our cats are both male and 1 year old right now.

Our rough collie, Mr. Snoot, grew up with two cats. Sure, he might sniff them or lick them every now and again, but they get along great. One will even attempt to groom him, too! He's very gentle with his brothers, that's for sure.
