hi we have had cats that loved the rubber ear plugs. rubberbands and we still have a 18 years cat that will lick the plastic bags for hours. When they were little we just let them have thier own ear plugs they outgrew it.As for the baby just don't leave kitty in the room alone with it instead use a baby monitor when he or she sleeps. you can monitor the baby no matter what room you are in and is safe. Soon both will outgrow the problem. We were told they like that kind of thing because they use lard when they are making the poduct yum yum to kitties.

The only thing the kitten could do that would harm the baby other then scratch is licking the baby on the mouth could give the baby worms if the kitten had any. I would make sure the kitten is not in the room with the baby. It's not the kitten's fault, he's a baby too.

I just saw this thread and am also wondering how you resolved the problem. Poor kitty, poor baby, poor mom! I wouldn't like the kitty getting so close to the baby either, but I also hate to see you get rid of it. But poor baby, having all his pacifiers chewed up. Wait, I just reread what you wrote. It's not a kitten, is it; is it an adult cat that you rescued? Hmmm...I don't know. Maybe if it's an adult cat it should be in a home without a baby. Especially since your little Liam really can't do without his binkies. Please let us know what happened.

I have never had a cat that stole pacificers ~ but how old is the baby? Is it dangerous to have the cut sleeping with/near him? I was reading this thinking the kitten might be jealous of the care the baby gets? I agree with everyone else that has said if the baby's saftey is at risk you might want to find a new home for the cat.

When I got a nightguard from my dentist, I was warned that cats love to chew on them and ruin them. They love the saliva or whatever on them. (Yes, I wash mine every day). But apparently, it's happened before with those. I imagine it's the same with a pacifier.
Sorry it's happening, don't know what to suggest.

I personally would not want to take the kitty back, but would try to keep him away from the baby and his bottles & pacies.
