Yeah, people always mention that I'm allergic to cats when I pet them. It's definitely worth it.
You pet the people?
Definitely worth it.
Am I doing it wrong?
Depends. Are you petting them really good?
Wait should I be asking people to pet me?
How often do you find yourself turning down someone asking for pets?
I mean.. never, but That's not as big a sample size as it sounds.
Well done
It's not worth it but I can't help myself
The toxoplasmosis makes me do it.
I find I'm fine so long as I don't rub my face on the cat and wash my hands before touching my face.
It feels weird that I’m so heavily allergic to dust. Meanwhile I can nuzzle my face into dogs and cats. Immune systems are bizarre things.
You just can't refuse that cats cute face even if it kills you.
I was allergic to cats too. despite everything we adopted one and over time my allergies lessened and eventually disappeared completely. love is stronger 💪🐱 it was worth it to the end.
I have three cats that I am apparently allergic to. People kept telling me to get rid of them.
I got rid of the people. Could not be happier.
i'm glad it worked for you! allergies in a human can change, but they very often only get worse. i've always liked cats and always been allergic. Actually I stopped liking cats when I found my adopted alley cat killing birds in my backyard. when I forced him to be an inside cat after like 5 times he'd killed birds he was the most miserable ass. because i wouldn't let him outside to kill birds. i had to abruptly move away and left him to the neighbors.
he's just a little predator. i wish him and you the best.
i understand the sentiment. And I agree! I love kitties.
But house cats are not native to North America. If left alone, they are an invasive species. they should not be here.
you are absolutely right when kitties start to become a threat for other species but i don't think fully domesticated indoor cats will cause any problem. they are just 🐱
I'm in this picture and I don't like it. (I'm the cat)
