At the same time train the cat to avoid the surfaces to be used by the baby. Place it on the surfaces you want the cat to avoid such as the bassinet and crib mattress, the top of the changing table, the playpen, and the carriage. The loud pop startles the cat and the sheet protects him from being hurt. If you have a nursery with a solid door that can be closed, it is advisable to have a baby monitor installed so you can keep the cat out of the room when necessary while still keeping tabs on your infant. Some people prefer to install screen doors, so that they can still hear the baby without a monitor.
Cats have an excellent sense of smell.
By using baby powder and lotion on yourself prior to the baby's arrival, your cat can get used to the scent. Leaving food bowls down attracts crawling babies and toddlers as well as insects. Done with consistency, they are extremely effective without harming your relationship with your cat. When bringing the baby home from the hospital, have the family member that the cat is least attached to carry the baby into the house. Talk to the cat.
