Why me??
Kitty I would tell your husband the couch can be his new bed especially because the cats always slept with you... When I had my wisdom teeth out I couldn't have my cats sleep with me for a week and boy did my cats scream the blues and scratch at the door and cry really loud. If your husband says no then tell him he can have the bed all to himself as you are going out of the room to sleep with the cats I bet that doesn't last long as he will get lonely.
Also another thing you can try is a preptual feeder for the cats too. I did that and it works pretty good. Unless your cat is used to getting wetfood in the am like mine was til we got the puppy and I stopped giving it to him. I think I am going to have to start back up just to get rid of hte leftover cans I have left 9 cans as the food costs too much to waste.
Mine get wetfood for dinner. I did want to get the automatic feeder but was afraid that Snick would eat much more ( she is 20lbs ) the vet said her weight is fine, but I look out for her. Now Trouble is 6lbs and they are from the same litter....very weird haha
