How to keep cat out of baby's crib
San Antonio Express News ^ | 04/03/2011 | Cathy M. Rosenthal

Posted on 04/04/2011 9:50:00 AM PDT by Responsibility2nd

Dear Cathy: How do you train a cat to stay out of a crib? We’re about to have a baby and I don’t want the cat getting into the crib at night?

Erlene

Dear Erlene: To discourage your cat from getting in the crib before the baby comes, place double-sided tape (available at pet stores) or aluminum foil in the crib. When the cat jumps in, he or she won’t like the texture and will most likely jump out. After a few attempts, your cat should stop trying to get into the crib. Of course, please remove the foil and tape from the crib when your baby arrives.

However, the best way to keep your cat out of the crib is to make sure the cat is not in the room when you leave it, then close the door and use a monitor to listen for your baby.

Yes, that was an awful story, but the vet saved the cat. It’s a good thing that someone found her and got the tape off her.

Ping to Post #24, Slings. Can you find that story again?

The true test is to see how cat people treat people who are indifferent to cats. There’s a true display of character. Or lack of one. You are a shining example.

It’s the cat lovers vs. the cat shooters thread hijack again. Sigh...

If only the cat shooters would start their own thread so that the cat lovers could go over and bleed all over them to turn the tables for a change.

Sweetie - you are way too high strung today. Can’t you see the humor on this thread?

Or do you approach all of life in general as one big insult to you?

Seriesly. What does SMF mean?

Smell My Finger???

I think it has something to do with low intelligence and incest...

OK, I googled it.
 
SMF.
 
Not sure who Dee Snider is, but she explains it....
 

And Fawn? Upthread you said I have a gutter mind?
 
Sure. Whatever. I can see why you didn't want to explain your SMF remark.
 
I said it once. I'll say it again. You are too uptight.
