Ahhh!! I cant believe I found this thread! Haha for about 7weeks now my cat has been sooo clingy, she HAS to sleep by me at night time & constantly follows me around the house.

I mentioned this to my Dr (not because I was concerned, just because I wondered if he knew why) & he said that she'll be reacting to the chemical changes of my body during pregnancy. It's kinda cool

I know the cat hates babies though so I'm sure after my bubba is born that she might not be so friendly!

Haha that's pretty funny, I'm only noticing our 2 girlie cats seem to take turns at sitting with me, I thought it was cuz I am in early stages (7 weeks) and lying down more cuz feeling the MS, but maybe not, maybe they can sense it.... be interesting to see over the next few months! Tehy are both very playful so if later on baby kicks them thru belly that could start a play war!

Oh good its not just me! One of my cats always sits on me and the other tabby one one wont even come on my couch.... until a few weeks ago, now I cant sit down without her draped accross me, im sure they fight to see who gets to sit on me. Im struggling to type at the mo as I cant see over her as shes pressed right under my chin with her legs round my neck, its completely not like her to be like this with me, she always loved DH but now I am #1. Think DH is a bit hurt lol.

Amusing thread...I'm having the same problem. My boy cat aged 5 has always thought of me as his mummy but it's got worse with this pg.   He constantly sits on my belly which is huge and he weighs 9kgs and every time he sits on me bubs gives him a huge kick and Nemo just purrs louder. He follows me everywhere and sleeps in between my legs. I've been getting those agonizing leg cramps for the last 4 weeks at night and if I get one when he's in between my legs, I can't reach my toes to pull them back towards my body. My hubby has to then extricate all 9kg of cat from my legs, whilst I'm squealing about the pain
He is currently sitting in my chair waiting for me to sit down but as I'm at the computer he has to make do with my chair. He also wakes me with licking my face which I think is gross, it also makes me wheeze but to him he just loves me and wants to kiss me. It doesn't matter to him that I've already been up 5 times to pee and I've only just got back to sleep He just wants to show his love.

Cats are funny creatures there's no denying it, but we love them just the same.

A 9kg cat! Crikey!! . No wonder baby kicks!

My kitty is 3kg, but she's underweight and going to the vet this week for treament for overactive thyroid. She'll be at the vet for a week, I'll miss her sleeping on my tummy, looking forward to her coming home already

Yep, he's a maine coon and they're known for their size. He's also about a meter in length
I don't know if bubs kicks cos of the weight (although I would if I was him) or just for some extra contact with the outside world. He's a very communicative baby. I pretty much get about 40 kicks a day, not the 10 we're supposed to count.

When I was preg my cat would sleep on my lap or next to me any chance she could. If she was sleeping on my lap her head would be pressed right up against my tummy. She loved it.

So you're not the only ones lol
