Hi all,

I'll be bringing my son home from the hospital tomorrow. Any tips
for a new dad on how the cats will react to the new baby and any tips
on how to get the cats used to our new family member?

Thanks/.


Don't leave the two in the same room unsupervised. Some animals immediately
feel displaced and will take a swat at an infant. Then there's the matter
of a baby's grip on a cat's tail. Don't let this happen. It's your fault
if/when the cat administers toddler training.

I have a short .mov file of an cat taking a few swats at an infant's head if
you care to see it. Funny because the cat got the message across to the
toddler and nobody got injured. Just need your email address. You need
Quicktime Player.
