I think that's very upsetting, too.

I cried all day long today because Kate was urinating all over everything and I was just convinced that we wouldn't be able to keep her. But of course everything worked out.

Maybe your cousin was really emotional after the baby was born. Hormones just FLY during that time. I remember crying constantly and being completely unreasonable - people couldn't stand to be around me. I just couldn't help it! It was like PMS X 100.

It doesn't help that all the books and advice you get on how to raise babies make you feel guilty for having cats in the house. The people who write the "How to raise babies" rules aren't particularly pet friendly.

I hope you find a good home for the cats. I'm sure you will! Hopefully they'll spend the rest of their lives in a wonderful place. I hope you'll forgive your cousin, too. Having a new baby turns people into entirely different people.
