You are NOT a bad meowmie...you just have to tell the kids whats right and what isn't. They have to learn and it takes kids years and years but kits learn it pretty fast. You have dogs and they are vastly different to kitty's so you have to be patient. I had a declawed cat attack the back of my ankles for nearly three years till he realized I wasn't gonna hurt him and he was a best friend for fifteen years after. It is nothing but time.
