One other thing Lora.. you should if at all possible get some help.  My sister couldn't keep up with everything for the baby's first year.  She lives out of state, so the family's not close enough to help her like we would if she lived here.  Taking care of a baby is a full time job, and yo

Hi Nina, You were the first person to respond to my "Massive Spraying Issue" thread, referring me to Patricia Schaller's website. It is kinda sad in a way to be remembered as the woman who had the spray-happy cat. LOL. But it IS the truth! Does your Ursula still spray? As far as "falling out" wi

When I was pregnant, one of my cats used to sleep on my big belly and in the baby cradle. After my baby was born, my cat carefully would sleep curled up beside her in the cradle. I never once had any issues between any of my cats and the baby, they all got along wonderfully. I think most people
