psychic cats
hi i've got 2 cats and i swear they both know i'm pregnant.
the female has suddenly decided to start poking my belly at every opportunity, not sure if she's saying hey to the baby or trying to poke her away to some place else, but she definately is acting differently.
the male has just started to behave really badly, the other day he got in the bath and had a wee! he's never done anything like that before. he also keeps crying up at the bedroom window in the middle of the night and doesn't stop until we go and let him the front door ( there's a cat flap at the back door ) we've tried ignoring him in the hope he'll get bored but after an hour and half we can't take it anymore,
i'm hoping once the baby is here they'll calm down a bit but i'm a bit worried about how they'll react to a crying baby, fingers crossed.

How strange! We've got 3 cats (2 boys & a girl) who all seemquite interested in climbing on top of my bump when i'm in bed.
But one of the boy cats has been exactly the same as yours, at the window crying his heart out & he decided to wee on the bed (on my side when i was still in it)!!!! We were not impressed as you can imagine & it cost a fortune to have the duvet cleaned!! There was no reason for him to be like this...he still cries like he's been shot in the ass, but no more weeing..thank God!!

Lucylu, just a tip, and it may seem cruel but he won't associate it with you - when your cat starts crying outside the bedroom window, chuck a jug of water out of it. You don't have to necessarily get him, just do it near him and then don't let him in.
Our cat was doing exactly the same thing and although it seems cruel, it was driving us insane. We did that just twice, two nights running and let him find his own way in through the flap and its stopped.
No love was lost as they don't see you do it, they then just associate the window and crying with getting wet!
Hope that helps.

Oscar rejected me a bit at first and spent all his time with my partner but lately he follows me in every room and sits on top of me as soon as i sit down. he doesnt sit on my bump though, even though he normally lies on my belly. he just chills on my legs..which cuts off the circulation a bit!
think our kittys are going to have their noses pushed out a bit when they are no longer out lil babies!

He has started to sleep in the nursery which he never did before and my other cat has become extremely loving and follows me everywhere even cries outstand the bathroom door when i'm in there.
They are strange but i love them.
