Hope someone can give me some reassuring advice here - over the weekend I adopted 2 cats (mother & son, aged 4&5) and I'm finding the whole experience very stressful!
They are very good tempered cats - affectionate & lovely with DS, but the trouble is when he goes to bed they both home in on me demanding attention and hogging the comfy sofa!
Sounds funny I know but I'm a single parent and by the time ds goes to bed I'm completely exhausted. Another 2 pairs of eyes staring at me/trying to get onto my lap etc. is too much to bear. I went to bed early last night just to get away from them.
I'm hoping that things will improve once they start going outside and I can boot them out when I want some peace (how long do I have to wait before I do this, by the way?). Or have I made a dreadful mistake?
