As I mentioned previously, the cat enjoys snuggling in the Boppy and napping in the crib. Â He has also recently acquired a fondness for the co-sleeper:
In getting some last-minute preparations done, I washed the co-sleeper sheet, stuck it on the co-sleeper mattress, and then covered the co-sleeper with garbage bags so that the cat wouldn’t leave his fur all over it. Â My plan was foiled when Stoli peeled up the plastic bags and shoved them aside so he could sleep unencumbered on the freshly laundered co-sleeper sheet. Â So, I ended up removing the co-sleeper from our room, sticking it in the nursery (which now has its door closed so that the cat can’t get into any more mischief), and cleaning all of the fur out of the co-sleeper. Â Total pain in the butt. Â Understandably, the cat is perplexed about being kicked out of the crib and now out of the co-sleeper. Â In the most pathetic form of protest he could muster, he spent last night sleeping on the floor on my side of the bed where the co-sleeper used to be. Â Every time I’d peer over the edge of the bed, he’d look back at me with the most hurt expression. Â I don’t think he’ll get into the co-sleeper or crib once the baby is here and using those items; he’ll be too intent on staying as far away from the baby as he can, I am sure. Â Luckily, we don’t have the same territoriality issues with our rabbit. Â She goes about her day blissfully unaware of the changes that are about to descend onto our household. Â Â
