Of course, being a nurse, you'd be way ahead of on that.

How are the kitties acting now? Your cats may have gotten used to having another being in the household and have changed their ways. Catdad had the best as well as sound and accurate advice except for the end... There is no such thing as a no kill shelter, the ones claiming to be so just transfer the pets to a kill shelter when they are full. The only sure way it wouldn't be put down is if it was fostered out.
But yeah, using Feliway on everything helps to remove territorial issues at home as well as reduce stress levels in new environments. Cats are engineered to be solitary, so multiple cats can never obtain an established heirarchy, (like dogs for example establishing a pack order) and there is a constant battle for dominance (which may or may not be noticeable) so occasionally you will have a cat avoiding the cat box or even food or water bowls in order to avoid confrontation with the other cat. But I have a feeling that your cats were reacting 'selfishly' to the idea of you bringing in another being into the household. Though they are more accepting of human members after a period of time than other kitties, so the problem may have dissolved.

And also toxoplasmosis can be obtained at any time throughout pregnancy, obviously you didn't get it because she is born without apparent defect, but that is advice for future pregnancies, if any. However, it is easy to avoid toxoplasmosis if you don't have anyone else to do kitty litter duty, just wear long gloves and a facial mask (like a surgeon's mask) when doing it while pregnant and wash ur hands after ur done. And it can also be obtained by managing your garden if you have a green thumb so you'd want to do the same thing there as well.

Hope the party was fun.

Horrible decision to have to make. For people like you and I, who see a lot of trauma, its easier to say let her go I think...but I can't imagine what her parents are feeling. I'd want to be cut loose if it was me though

Tough decision to make! Wow!
It must be really tough on a parent to let go of one of their children.
Sad you had to bump into your friend like that also.
Hope you are ok.

Hahahahaha i hear you girl!

yes, enjoy it. i get knee surgery in 2 weeks and i am looking forward to the 2 mths at home that work is probably going to give me.

Happy Birthday! I'm sure your hair will look beautiful no matter what you decide!

Happy birthday!!

go for it!

The feeling is common for many, if not most, people. It seems to be part of the human condition. You're just as capable as anyone I rather suspect.

Here's a quote I use when I feel down sometimes, hope it helps.

"Be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars. In the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul." -Max Ehrmann

They'll be better days. There always are. Just keep fighting. We're all here for you.

We got to recalibrate that gaydar. Stick around, maybe shell be back on the market

i havent gotten any in 7 months leo- so I know what you mean, but its not that, its the lack of interest in doing anything other then laying on her back. I need spontaneity, a little kink maybe even just her taking charge- but nahh thats not in the cards

All I can say is that if my girl was pregnant and not all like 'don't touch me', I would NOT leave her alone. Maybe I am just off my axis a bit but... pregnant chicks rock [and are hot as hell].

Congrats!

Agreed, hope you had a great sleep.

Lovely!
