Halp I need kitteh Anonymous
Hi /an/ I come to you in desperation. I really want a kitty but my bf is really allergic to cats. The he has problems breathing and has to go outside for a few minutes during all hours to not die kind of allergies.

Have any of you sucessfully reduced your allergic reactions to kittys? If so how? Am I doomed to be kitty-less all my life? Please cure my heartache /an/!!!!!!!

Pic related, I want a kitty like that with huge creepy eyes.

Do you have more pictures like those? Fucking awesome shots. Sphinx are fucking awesome. The only non-moggie cats I would ever have would be a nebelung or a sphinx.

Takes one to know one.

Wait what?

(Also OP, don't get a cat. Your boyfriend will resent the cat and treat it poorly. Or he will leave you. If anyone in the home is greatly against a pet, it is a really bad idea to get one anyway. Oh and "Am I doomed to be kitty-less all my life" you said boyfriend, not husband, so no, and even then, there is divorce and death. Get a cat when you can.)

OP here,

>>248376
I already have two.

He actually doesn't hate cats(he likes them, thinks they are cute, goes B'awww's etc). He just hates how his allergies makes him feel when he is around cats. I wouldnt spring a kitten on him, that's why I'm trying to see if theres a way around it though.

I'm not fond of Sphinx.

Cat allergy in humans is an allergic reaction to cat glycoprotein Fel d 1 secreted by the cat's sebaceous glands. Fel d 1 is mostly found in the cat's skin and saliva.~~~not the hair~~~
if OP wants a cat your gonna have to wash it or wipe it down everyday and clean cat spitty hair off sofas constantly if you want your boyfriend to live, getting a sphinx doesnt not solve this

I've grown up constantly having cats. So I loves them. And I can either decide to get another ferret (Yes I have everything needed including moneys) but decided I would rather have something low maintence (A KITTEH!).

Anywho, we both decided to hold off on kitteh for time being. thanks anons

You are obviously too stupid to own a cat. Get something you can take care of properly, like a large rounded stone.

You know they have genetically engineered cats that won't set off allergies in people. They're just a little expensive. You can look them up online.

Siberian cats are supposedly to be hypo-allergenic.
Not sure if its true, but its the claim. They say that these cats do not produce, or produce really small amounts of said protein that causes allergies in certain people.
They look like Maine Coons, and are supposedly very dog-like in temperment.

have the right idea

claiming to be allergic to cats is just a cop-out excuse for people who hate cats already. My vet is allergic to cats and dogs. He just takes allergy medicine. A novel idea, huh?

Well as said in the original post, I was wondering if anyone sucessfully reduced their allergic reactions (the stronger ones) anyway. Not hey guys are there any expensive cats I can get etc (I've already looked all this up).

He so far hasnt found any medicine that is sucessful enough to help him. He used to live with his ex gf who had 2 cats for a while...

If he LIVED with her, then he can put up with it. Don't let the cats into the bedroom and have him take some allergy shots.

Don't you think I've exhausted all possible means with him already? Well, maybe not, since you wouldn't know.

But like I said he lived with them but his allergies are to the point that he has to get out of the house at all hours of the day to get a hold of them.

And, I don't really want to have to block off an area for any pet. We have a dog who likes to sleep next to the bed, I might just be a pussy but I wouldn't want to play favorites like that...

Anyways, I make no sense now. Please sage this shit

If he has comprehensive health insurance that will cover most reasonable expensive stuffs, he can go to an ear-nose-throat specialist and get his allergy cured. The entire process takes about a year or so, and while the consultations are a bit on the expensive side, the medication isn't (around $80 or so for 2 months' worth).

That's how I cured my allrgy to everything ariborne.
