Yes, I thought this, the farm idea is really bad, unless it's a farm where the people will keep them indoors only not use them as mousers and keep them outside.

Exactly what I am looking for........Just need to find them now!!!

Hey i have got a really far fetched idea, thought it was worth a mention though....

I guess you love you cats and ideally you wouldn't like to rehome them, how about speaking to a local care home for the elderley and see if they would like to see them during the day - it is an outing for the cats, a pleasure for the elderley and gives you a break without having them all the time. I know up rooting them is not good, but they will still have a base with you...it would be an adventure for them and all cats love that....

brilliant idea, problem is I would have no way of getting them there I live in a tiny village with nothing, the nearest town is down the motorway and I dont have transport.....good idea though

Do you have a garden? If so could you build a run for them so they can go out in that in the day time with plenty of toys etc, Then at night time when you have time for them bring them in?
Also if you allow them to sleep in your room radiator beds are very good for keeping your cat close to you and them feeling safe.
They were your babies remember before your child came along and they wont really understand that they can not have your full attention.
Mine get under my feet all the time if i dont want them to do it i will just close the door to the stairs so i know they can not trip me up.
The only other thing i could suggest would be maybe if they dont have a set area set up one for them in a quiet part of the house and see if this helps, maybe give them an old top of yours to sleep on so they feel close to you still.

Ahh what a shame the care home idea would have brilliant Nezi but the above idea is also great, it would be good if we could work with you so you can keep you babies... would be a shame to have to rehome because even thou you may be giving them less attention i am certain they know you love them still very much and it would hurt them dearlly to have to leave you after being so used to you....They also have each other to play with...maybe some new toys and a nice big cushion to lounge on would be a good idea...
