I'm Currently Feeling: | cats freak me out. I've heard from friends that they can get really jealous and start doing weird things like peeing and pooping in places they know they should not. Maybe your cat knows it won't be your main baby anymore. I expect there is stuff you can do to help - I'm sure some cat lovers will chip in soon. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I wrote a post about this a week ago or so. Mickey follows me EVERYWHERE. He has to follow me to the washroom for Christ's sake. If I get off my bed to walk across the room, he comes with me. He was always clingy but this is literally insane. And if I'm out, if someone tries to take him off my bed he goes hysterical.
Maybe it has to do something with the pregnancy. I read they try to protect you, so I guess maybe that is why they're following us? Who knows. They're mysterious creatures.
You know its bad when you can't pee in peace without the cat meowing at the bathroom door. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | my cats and dogs are the same. I read that its because they can feel your body temperature rise during pregnancy. My cats try to lie on my bump now and look confused when they get kicked lol its funny to watch. My youngest dog sits with just her head on my bump and will sit like that for hours. Its cute really. |

I have no idea what will happen when the baby is born...I have a feeling she'll throw a Naomi Campbell level hissy fit because not everything revolves aroung her anymore...
For now,she is still enjoying her throne...  |

| Well my cat is always talky and annoying, so there's no change. He still ignores me when my husband is around, he worships him. Stupid cat. The other cat just lays in her bed 24 hours a day like usual, no change there either. |
