Well Aaron & I are the proud pets of Bear, an 11yo cat!! I got her as a Christmas present when she was 4w old & had to teach her how to drink from a bowl. When she was one she was hit by a car & had to have her hip replaced - she was pregnant at the time & had to be desexed cos some of her bits & pieces were damaged.

She is very very loud & screams (nope not meows, screams) all day long! On the weekends she is ok cos she know we will be home, but as soon as we look like leaving the house she goes off. She stays inside, but loves going out into the sun when we are outside wih her.

Usually she hides when kids come over to visit, but when I babysat 2 kids (2 & 4 year olds) a few years ag she got used to them & stayed around them. BUT when she got annoyed with the attention she lashed out & scratched the 2yo. So I'm really worried about when Munchkin arrives cos she can be very nasty at times.

But we love her & will just have to work on it before Munchkin is born.
