Cats

I spent Christmas Eve and Christmas Day celebrating in homes with cats, and my allergies have just kicked my ASS. Of course, I would go to both places again without hesitation. I’m just a little surprised at how bad it’s been. I was hideously allergic to cats as a kid, then in my early 20s, it subsided quite a bit and I could sometimes spend time in houses with cats without effect, but now it’s come back with a vengeance.

Merry Christmas to all (achoo!) and a Dayquil cocktail for everyone!

mmmm cats… I watched a show on Animal Planet about feral cats in Rome. It was pretty cool. Caesar eventually lost his dominant status :frowning: Brutus became the King Cat… Remind’s me of a Big Black song.

The Emperor makes his rounds, Master of all Cats
Fat in the Midwest, Emperor rolls his little balls – Catland
Says hi to his pal Walter, for all that smoking in the backyard
The neighbors do not understand, he’s an aberration
Even makes a funny noise
He plays great hunter with a ball-point pen
When the cat’s away, ah, it’s a regular rat day
When the rat’s away, ah, King Cat, King Cat can play day
I jump around with my wang in the wind
It flops around, you admired it
I am your neighbor now
You can’t stop me now
In exchange ??, I will even run a mm mm mm ??
If not, then all I want is something else
You will ask them for me
In exchange, I’ll piss on everything you value
I am the Emperor of Cats
I do what I want now, cats
I do what I want now, cats
I shit outside if I want to
All a part of my, ow, kitty empire

My kittens spent most of xmas curled up on either myself or my bf. Machavelli, my 2 yr old, and Ryo-Ohki, my 4 month old, loved having the wrapping paper on the floor from the presents to play with! You should talk to your doctor about allergy medicine if those are houses you often visit.

Cat/dog hair allergies are fuuun. They all seem to adore me instantly too… 'Course that in itself isn’t too much of a problem, it’s the fact that I like them as well that’s more trouble. :slight_smile:

That would be the pets that instantly adore me… confusingly worded post there.

I have asthma and truly horrendous cat allergies. I also live in a 1 bedroom condo with not one, not two, but THREE of the most psychotic cats in the Universe.

Solution - flonase for the nasal and eye problems. I feel great since getting this perscription. Also works wonders on pollen, etc.

Don’t ask why I have cats…just remember that I am a mental patient. :slight_smile:

Hmmmm…now that I think about it, I was normal before the cats showed up.

I was wondering what happened to Brutus the cat…

I’m only allergic to that stupid cat howl that they do. It makes my spine break out in goose bumps.
