Stacey - Yes, we definately wondered about the cats. However, our pediatrician told us that eczema is actually rarely related to allergies - more sensitivity to things touching the skin. At the time that the eczema developed we were still keeping James far away from the cats, and the cats far from anything that was for James. His eczema is actually almost completely gone now, and appears to have been caused by something in my breastmilk, and also anything with fragrance. Thanks for the insight!
No worries then! You never know, some people are more attached to their pets than to their kids it seems, and I wasn't sure if you had checked it out. I know that for myself, I can't handle cats in the house very well. It makes my eyes itch, and then my exzema gets worse. Good to hear that James is doing better!

Just wondering if you ever considered the cat being the cause of James allergy problems, and exzema. Cat hair/dander can be extremely bad for that.
Animals can be so interesting some times. very cute picture.
what a beautiful cat! and stroller :-)
Haha! I think there must be something very interesting about strollers since we always find our camp cats getting very cozy in our all the time.
