Never fear, Joanna - ALL animal lover here but am partial to cats - have 2 now and have had cats all my life. The first picture my Mom took of me in my crib when I got home from the hospital was of Scampi and I in the crib. At first my mom was a little scared having the cat in there but my Dad said to chill (whatever) but after a few days it became apparent that Scampi was doing no harm. She would actually hiss and growl at strangers who approached. Or so the story goes.
