Hey Jamie, Welcome to YT. I know how excited you must be, and the wait is sooooo freakin painful!! i just got my baby a 1.5 weeks ago. the wait was excruciating!!
i dont really crate my puppy, but i was very lucky because he was already started on paper training by his breeder, so he has been a breeze to train on pee pads. Are you training him outdoors or indoors? As for the crate, just leave in open even when hes not being crated and put a few toys in it and something that smells like you [i put my pillowcase in his] so that he want to go in it and knows its his "den." the worst part about the crating is the little wimpers. try an be strong, i was not...and he sometimes expects that he has a spot on the bed next to me. i bought him a bed/pillow thingy that he is absolutely in love with and has abandoned me for the pillow at night now.
GOOD LUCK!! and im so anxious along with you for when he comes home. they are sooo fun when they are puppies. i dont know how much research you've done, but def take a look at the different parasites and other health problems that can arise with yorkie babies in the mean time [coccidia, hypoglycemia, both LP's] its so important to know what to look for incase anything goes wrong. i am NOT trying to scare you- just be aware. there is sooooo much info on this site, so you will have reading material to hold you over until Mischa gets here.
as for the kitty, we have two cats and they hate sirius. mostly because he is evil and barks at them whenever they try to come smell him. One of them is starting to open up to him, but i can tell its going to take some time. just be patient and they will get used to eachother. Give Jasper the same amount of attention and he will be fine. he may be a little put off like our cats at first, but all animals are so different its hard to say! ok sorry for the novel. Def keep us updated. Ask you breeder for some pics and post them!! :]
