Has anyone had a cat with a newborn. My dad keeps saying that cats are known to smother babies. I just want to know if anyone has had any problems like that.

I've had my cat for 3 years. He's very good with my 3 mo. He knows to be gentle around him. He'll sniffle him and nuzzle (or mark him lol). At first he'd jump in/on his things but he's learned not to. If anything he's uninterested with him. Idk maybe is because they have the same birthday 😅😂

Just remember just because it didn't happen to someone else doesn't mean it wont happen to you. I personally know someone who lost their baby due to their cat suffocating it. as long as you keep the cat away from the baby you should be fine. And I heard its just newborns.

I wouldn't get a kitten who was just weaned from its mother cause that could maybe cause a problem but I've always had cats and none of my cats ever bothered the baby. My one cat actually would sleep in the crib with my 2 boys and just sleep at the opposite end away from the baby. It was actually really cute. I wouldn't worry to much honestly and just watch closely

It's definitely true. I wouldn't say all cats but I think it's just an instinct. When my oldest son was a baby I caught the cat jumping up in his bassinet snuggling really close to him (fur in his face). I'm not sure why but I had to get rid of Mr. Fluff Bottom @bria @jodanmarie

@jodanmarie, my mom always had a cat with newborn, she'd sleep with baby, and if she'd cry the cat would run back and forth to let my mom know she was crying.

I didn't plan on leaving her alone with the baby. Thank you guys. @bria hope this helps.

My family keeps saying that too but it's a superstition in my opinion. My in laws never had an issue with it or anyone I know. I mean, you shouldn't ever leave an animal alone with a baby anyways.

Can you tag me when you get a response ? I'm curious also. although I could never see my cat doing that. He's not the type to be aggressive or even spiteful

It's common because the smell of the babies formula the cats tend to get in there mouths and stuff, just be extra careful and don't let your baby in room alone with the cat and all should be well
