Steph you're funny...and how much longer do you have if you go full term? That could be a couple weeks right? haha
As far as your cat boy do I get it right now with Parle. H keeps saying it's because of Ava but to be honest he had been acting up long before her. He's a great loving dog truly is but if we leave him outside too long he'll dig and there are freaking holes all over now...because the yard is fenced in he barks at anything really nasty sounding but if I am walking him he'll be sweet to the same things he's mean to in the yard, he constantly is taking his blanket and towels I keep in his kennel and sloshing them in his water bowl (we can no longer leave his food out during the day because he'd get it everywhere) and I think he's peeing on the towels when he puts them in the water dish too personally. My laundry room stinks no matter how much I wash his kennel, the blankets or him and I'm sick of it.
He sheds so much it's everywhere and my cut off point is on Ava's stuff! Her room is the dog free zone but I always have to watch to make sure he's not going in there.
And recently his nice soft bed and blanky in our room isn't good enough..no he wants to root in our closet for a place to sleep or under our bed and I just don't trust him.
He's ruined our guest bedroom carpet with peeing (he's house broken) he does this just for sh*ts and gigles because we'll let him out and then he'll come in and do it.
I can't get rid of him because I don't know anyone who would take him (I've made him out to be a brat but he needs lots of land and folks to play with him) and I can't do it and H can only give so much as well. Le sigh ok I feel better
cole - have you taken her to the vet to make sure she doesn't have a urinary tract infection? perhaps she needs meds to calm her down - maybe they can prescribe some antidepressants for her? otherwise i'd look into a behaviorist. they can come into your house (like victoria stillwell from it's me or the dog) and figure out what the issue is.
one of my cats has to live in our bedroom otherwise she'll pee on the couch. sometimes she'll pee on our bed although i think we've gotten that under control. i know how it is at the end of the day when you're exhausted and just want to go to sleep and find you have to change a mess to clean up (thank god for waterproof mattress pads!) so i can only imagine how fun it is to find she's peed when you've worked and cared for an infant all day. good luck!
