My now wife didn’t really like cats when I met her and was allergic to the point of the hair giving her little welts.
Fast forward a couple few years and she loves my cat and just ends up taking allergy pills every day and dealing with the itching.
Fast forward a few more years when that cat dies and she says she doesn’t think we can ever replace him.
Fast forward one month and she comes home with a flyer for a rescue cat she wants to adopt.
And we did and she couldn’t be happier.
Cat: “Oh, you still think he’s YOUR boyfriend?”
I’d like everyone to look at this because this is proof cats also abide by the “they fell asleep, guess I’m stuck here” rules.

No posts though.
…Is he still allergic?
Allergies are not as linear as allergy = death/miserable. Some dander is not the same as others and some people only react to certain types. He could have just been bullshitting too.
Sadly I could never live with a cat or dog as their dander makes my airways slowly close up :(
My sister was very allergic to cats when she was a kid. Then one day she just sort of turned up with this cat. My sister’s friends cat had kittens and this was one of the kittens.
Anyway she was afraid my parents would say no so she hid the cat in her room for 2 or 3 days before my parents noticed. By which point it was somewhat of a done deal.
Anyway 16 years later when the cat died my sister was no longer allergic, so if you spend enough time around them you do eventually become desensitized. Or at least some people seem to.
my allergies got better as i lived with cats longer. either way it’s more put-up-with-able than not having a cat
I’m allergic to cats but grew up with one (she lived to 21!) and my fiance has a cat and we moved in together. It’s fine I just have to keep the cat away from my face and I wash my hands after petting her.
Even if I don’t I just get really itchy, it’s not the worst. Worth it for the pets and cuddles.
Imagine dating someone who says any of those things.
I know right! When someone says they have allergies, I’m like no thanks weirdo, I don’t want your disgusting allergies. Go cry into the tissues you have in your pocket already probably because you have allergies loser!
I am allergic to cats and have allowed a cat to rub it’s head against my face multiple times, because that cat was a bro (and I had loratadine).
Also don’t really like cats in general because most of them are jerks, just that specific one was, as I mentioned, a bro.
Maybe the cat’s in the process of slowly assassinating him, we don’t know.
