Proud mom

I am moving to a house and will needed painted. I wanted to paint and decorate my kids room. Both of them are boys. Three and a five year old. They both will be sleeping in the same room together. I am trying to figure out want to do for them to be happy in our new place and they like cars and balls. I really want it to be special.

Answer
Do you have a bed? If not-here is a link for a loft bed w/a tent. Its so cute. Too bad its not a bunk bed, though. Then you could get the sports bean bags, basketball clothes hamper.. etc

I wish my 4 year old wanted sports, I have found many more ideas and things to go with sports. but he wants monster trucks! I may get a tire and dip it in brown paint and make muddy tire tracks over his blue walls. Then hang posters up and maybe even get a wall murial. Also hang or paint road signs. if you do a search on wall murials and/or road signs you will find lots of ideas. the murials are really too expensive for me so I may try to do it myself! (MAYBE) they also have the wall "stick ups" for sports or cars. they are removable stickers. do a search if your interested.
anyway. good luck and have fun!

Does any1 have tips for designing my bedroom?

Q. i am a teenager boy and LOVES the florida gators! I have wall paper (blue with oragane penstripes and gator heads) and lightly colerd wood floors but them im stuck. i think i will probabaly just empty my room and start putting things in with the wall paper but i could use hints. keep in mind im only 13 not 18 and this is like a 400 sqaure foot room.i will put a soda macine and stuff like that but think and who ever has is the most useful answer will be my favorite answer!

Answer
Well alot of stores carry sport themed bedspreads, thats always an option. As for other things, hmm. There's always lamps, clocks, and storage items. I'm redoing my room also and when I searched for ideas I kept getting links to lockers for your room. Like actual school lockers, which if you painted them how you like would go with the football theme. You'll need a place for your friends to sit so beanbag chairs would be a good idea. I don't know if you play vidio games but if you do, racks to hold you games and a good chair to sit and play in. Maybe instead of getting a soda machine you could get one of those big water cooler things that they have at sport games. You know? Like a Gatoraid one? And then put in on a bar stool? Since I don't know your spending limit I'm kinda just putting random stuff down.

How do i get my cat used to a dog?

Elizabeth

I have a Siamese/himalayan full grown female cat who hates dogs. And my fiance whom I am planning on moving in with soon has a full grown male dog who loves to play and is super energetic and has had experiences living with cats and tends to chase them to attempt to play with them. Can someone please give me advice on how I could get our animals to live together happily and calmly together.

Also my cat likes to sleep with me at night and my fiance's dog sleeps with him at night too. Any ideas for how we could keep these arrangements?

Answer
There are breeds that should never be with cats unless they grew up with them from a puppy. Pit Bulls and Husky are two of those breeds. For them a running cat is prey. Dogs should be obedience trained to "Leave it" and Sit and Stay. Allowing the dog to chase cats was a mistake in its training. Seek training at PetsMart or something.

Get 6' tall or taller cat trees/condos so that your cat has escape places to get away when being "attacked" by the dog. That is exactly what the cat is going to think is happening. And if it feels it is being attacked, it is going to be defensive and that means claws into a nose or an eye. Provide tall places for the cat to go on furniture like top of the refrig or bookcases.

The problem here is that the dog doesn't know not to chase cats. It's also the dog's territory and the cat will be an intruder so look for territory problems.

Get an extra large memory foam dog bed and put it on the floor on your boy friend's side of the bedroom for his dog. Or get a king size bed!

I've pasted in some links for sites that should provide some help.
