    Hello all

    Does anyone know the correct way to carry the fur balls once they get to 13 weeks, Riley is suddenly getting bigger!
    We live in a first floor maisonette so are carrying her up and down the stairs. I've started to notice pressure at the bottom of her back (equivalent of our coxix) when I'm carrying her and worried that it might be damaging.
    The way I carry her is, I put one arm behind her front legs which end up with her paws resting over my arm and pressure on chest not tummy, with my other arm under her bottom, her facing forward, back against my chest.
    Is there a correct way?!
    Many thanks
