Anyone have a cat?

[NaeNae]

We have a cat who thinks the house is his

He hung around alot when I renovated the nursery, he decided one day that the snuggle bed (which was inside the cot) was a nice place for a snooze - then he discovered the comfy baby blanket I had put on the change table.

So I gave him the comfortable blanket, put the side up on the cot and have put up the mosquito net. Now his favorite place in the nursery is on the window sill.

I have been quite vigilant when I leave the back of the house open and whenever I catch moggy sniffing around the nursery door I just say "out" he back chats a bit then leaves without entering the nursery.

We will have to keep an eye on him of course but thats part and parcel of being a pet owner and a to be parent.

TBH I am more worried about cat running off and never coming back because he is not "the baby" anymore

When my cousin was preparing her nursery, she put blown up balloons in the cot to scare the cat away if it jumped into it - think it only ever did it the once.

She also then decided just in case to put a screen door in front of the wooden door as an extra preventative measure too.

My cats are now preparing for the new bub by one of them sleeping on the bouncer and the other sleeping on the change mat - both items are on the top of DS' very tall wardrobe.
