"Cathy" wrote in message ... So far this week we have had to call out the plumber to fix a broken pipe, I've been told the cat badly needs dental treatment, and now the video player, my sanity saver giving me 1/2 an hour to cook tea, has died and needs replacing. We were trying to save a little for the new baby, just in case there were unexpected costs, and also for Christmas. Oh well - the pipe had to be fixed, the cat is my daughter's favourite toy so needs to be fixed, and the video saves my sanity so needs to be replaced. I wonder what else will go wrong?! Cathy I just LOL at the cat being your daughters favorite toy! Bonnies favorite toy is our cat. Tori -- Bonnie 3/20/02 Xavier due 10/17/04 |

Why does everything go wrong when you're trying to save money?!

Our poor cat is very tolerant - gets her tail pulled, gets kissed, and gets chased around the house by DD going 'meow'! She has only scratched once. A good sort of toy to have, I reckon - educational as well as mobile! That sounds like our cat -- I love that description, an educational toy! Mary S. |

I still think that if this baby recognizes anyone's voice, it's probably going to be Peaches, since she enjoys lying next to my stomach, sort of curled around it, and often seems to be carrying on a conversation with the baby in purrs and mews. Well...I wanted her to be bilingual... |

There seems to be this innate attraction between cat and bump-they all seem very comfortable right by there-although I have had a hard time convincing the youngest that "mount cuddles" is not for climbing!

My two cats don't seem to have noticed the bump at all :c( The dog just knows she can't jump up on me like she used to and she has to be careful around the belly. Do any of you have any advice about introducing the new baby to the animals? I've read that I should carry a doll around for a week or two to get everyone used to the idea and that Dbf should come home first with something the baby has worn so animals can sniff at it, then when we all come home from the hospital, i come in first greet them all and then Dbf comes in with the baby. Anything else anyone can tell me? My dog is a 15 month old Aussie Shepherd mix, recently spayed, the cats are a 4 yr old female and a 3 yr old son, both fixed, all animals are rescues from local shelters but have no behavioral problems, besides the puppy being a bit clingy to me. |
