We have a dog and a cat who are normally quite attention seeking, but in the last week both have become extremely needy. If I am upstairs where the dog isn't allowed, he'll sit and cry on the stairs until I go back down. If I am in the sitting room, he'll stand and breathe on me and when I tell him to go lie down he'll throw me puppy eyes and cry. Menawhile my cat will cry endlessly until I give her my undivided attention, and she refuses to eat unless I am there with her.
I feel terrible, but the neediness is driving me nuts, I hate it. I have no patience for it and now I worry that I will feel the same frustration and anger towards the baby.
Anybody else getting this grief from their pets? AND not coping with it? maybe I am just losing the plot.
