There are these net like things that zip like a tent over the crib. You may also try just closing the door to keep the cat out or putting a little latch lock on the door so the cat can not push it open (thats what I did)

I had this problem before my son was born. We had the crib set up in what was to be his room. We moved the day after I got out of the hospital and from that day on we have kept his bedroom door closed. It is cheap, easy and better for your baby than letting cats in the baby's bedroom. Having cats around especially letting them in the baby's room can be bad not only that they can jump into the crib, but cat hair in the room can cause allergies to start. A baby spends most of their time in their room sleeping for the first 4 months usually, that is more than enough time to develope an allergy.

You have to keep the door closed while baby is in crib or put the cat in a room that you can shut the door so it will not get near the baby. About 5 months ago I was talking to my 3 month old baby boy while he was in the crib and I was clapping my hands and singing to him and my large dog came running in the room when she heard the clapping and jumped in the crib. I immediately went to the emergency room because I could not tell if she landed anywhere on him or just over him. He was fine but I learned my lesson and now she can not get near the nursery.

Is your child in it when the cat does it? I had my crib set up for about 1 month before my daughter was born and my cat got in it all the time, but once I had her she never went in it she would walk around the top but that was all. As far as I know no, just try to keep the cat out of the baby's room.

I don't know if they still use these, but check medical supply houses, they used to sell clear plastic domes that fit over the top of the crib.

This is costly though, I had 3 cats when my son was born. I went to home depot and replaced the door in his room with a cheap screen door. Cats were kept out and I could still look in the room.

Worked out very well,

there's several items availabe and inexpensive as well = mosquito net, or a couple yards of sheer curtain material draped over the crib would be the best choices. (Use a short curtain rod to prevent the material from collapsing into the crib.) Either one will allow you to see the baby, and the baby's vision isn't obstructed either.It also keeps the flies off the baby

You certainly need to keep the cat out of the crib. especially if there is a baby in it. The cat does that because he smells the milk on the baby. .You surely wouldn't want cat to chew on the babys face.. would you... Put the cat out side..

Here it is...a crib tent. Good luck. We have a cat that I was worried about the same thing with when our oldest came home. He got moved out of our bedroom and banned from the baby's bedroom. $70.00 is fair price I think. Check ebay for used ones.

It may sound weird, but I saw it on a animal show.
The vet installed a screen door to the baby's room.
That way, you can still hear and see the baby, but the cat get in.
