Jess - i 'm in a similar situation - we have two cats - one is happily an outside cat and comes home to be fed - he's a turd, hisses if HE knocks against me, and we really don't like each other much - but he's always been DH's cat. the other has been an inside outside cat until recently. i've been trying to get him to live outside, DH kept letting him in. he was never meant to stay here but we can't find him another home. he is a PITA - he likes to drop and roll in front of me (DH's doing - he stops and rubs him with his foot - i can't SEE the damn cat with my belly so i trip over him!) - he goes in rooms he KNOWS he's not supposed to be in (again, DH lets him) - so this week, i've been a hard-ass and locked him out - he's making a racket to get in but he'll get over it (provided DH does!). i don't want o have to put him down (he's a beautiful natured cat, i'm just not a cat person really) and we can't seem to rehome him, so he's having to change to fit with us, instead of us fitting with him. he hates it, but he'll get over it!

i would seriously look to rehome your kitty. i'm hanging for my shed to be built so we can let the cats in there and make them happier - i don't hate them, i just don't like them. number one is nasty to me so i can't have him around a baby - number 2 is just damn dangerous to me as i am now, and i'm guessing it will be harder when i'm carrying a bub around...
