YABVU. Unless they're sick. Soft kitty is for when you're sick. I thought everyone knew that?

CrohnicallySick · 07/01/2014 21:42

(wonders whether soft kitty will get rid of DD's cough)

JanetAndRoy · 07/01/2014 21:42

Yeah, Soft Kitty is for poorly children only.

BikeRunSki · 07/01/2014 21:44

We have our own version called "Sausage Boy" (same tune) which 5 yo ds insists on every night.

AndIFeedEmGunpowder · 07/01/2014 21:47

I don't know this kitty song but if gets children to sleep I am learning it.

TheLostPelvicFloorOfPoosh · 07/01/2014 21:47

DS sang it to me when I was sick over Christmas Grin

AndIFeedEmGunpowder · 07/01/2014 21:47

And the sausage one.

TheNightIsDark · 07/01/2014 21:49

I sing it to DS. He purrs.

marceline · 07/01/2014 21:49

No, we sing it - with slight variations - quite a lot. Last night it was 'Soft dinosaur, warm dinosaur...' I am quite the poet.

edamsavestheday · 07/01/2014 21:49

we've referred to it, but so far refrained from quoting in full...

AndIFeedem, do you think your children's sleep difficulties could be diet-related, by any chance? Grin

sydlexic · 07/01/2014 21:50

Had to sing it to DS 13 on Sunday.

Aniseeda · 07/01/2014 21:50

I sing 'soft piggie' to my guinea pig Grin

WoodBurnerBabe · 07/01/2014 21:51

I sing it to mine to get them to sleep :-) I have the lyrics on a hoody and DD used it to learn to read...

MrsCharlesBrandon · 07/01/2014 21:51

DD1 sings it to me when i'm stressed.

CustardOmlet · 07/01/2014 21:51

Horsey Horsey is for going to sleep, Soft Kitty is for watching Big Bang.

AndIFeedEmGunpowder · 07/01/2014 21:52

edam Grin

I get lots of Hmm when I post in weaning!

SecretWitch · 07/01/2014 21:54

YANBU. I hum it myself in emergency situations.

BikeRunSki · 07/01/2014 21:55

The words to Sausage Boy stay within the walls of this house!

giraffesCantMakeResolutions · 07/01/2014 21:57

Haha I am going to go and text her! Grin

CSIJanner · 07/01/2014 21:59

Only when they're sick. Although the one year old sang it to me the other night whilst trying to get to sleep at 1am.

celebmum · 07/01/2014 22:00
