Cats Schmats I Can’t Stand Them

You know how before your baby comes along, you love your pets to death? I mean, they're your babies, right? You coddle them. You take their pictures when they're being cute or stupid. You worry about them. Maybe it sounds cruel, but I can't stand my cats now. They get on my nerves all of the time. It seems like anytime the baby is asleep, that's when they suddenly want to wrestle with each other and snarl at one another while tumbling down the stairs. They sound like a couple of fat wrestlers who have each other pinned to the floor. And every morning when I'm preparing breakfast for the baby, the cats won't leave me alone, crying and crying and crying and begging and begging and begging for food.

What is their problem? I know they still think they're the rulers of the house, but they're not anymore. They need to get over themselves.
