The cats have definitely been through an adjusting period. The first few days and nights were very stressful on them. Every time she cried they would hide. They were also so stressed out that they were both shedding a ton of hair. I felt really bad for them but I knew that the stress would be temporary and that they would eventually adjust.
Puma adjusted quicker that Pepe which I had predicted would happen. By the 3rd day Puma wanted to be where ever Bridgette was. He like to lay in the bed and sleep while she is eating. He also enjoys all of our new baby items. I think he might think they are for him and not the baby. His two favorite are the pack n' play that she sleeps in and her ocean play mat.
Pepe took about two weeks to adjust. He wouldn't have anything to do with me and would only cuddle with Patrick at night. He has started sleeping in the shoebox in the closet again. In the evenings he will sit on my lap on the couch if Patrick is holding the baby. He will also occasionally snuggle on my side of the bed again. A miracle happened the other day and he came and cuddled with me on the couch while I was holding Bridgette. It was a Kodak moment!!
