Cat can change anybody

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.

My cat abides by the "they fell asleep, guess I need to paw their face to let me out of the room now" rules.

...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.

- Allergy meds can also help a ton. I'm mildly allergic. Congestion, itchy eyes and face. I had one cat, married into 5 more. I'm fine as long as I stay on top of my allergy meds.

- Sadly I could never live with a cat or dog as their dander makes my airways slowly close up :(

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.

Well... is he still breathing?

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 know this was a joke but im sorry you are getting down arrows for it.

"I am allergic"

- Looks real allergic with his face buried in the cat.

It's funny to me because it looks more like he fell asleep and the cat put itself there

28

I think if the cat was responsible it's ass would be in the guys face lol

16
He fell asleep awfully close to the edge

I remember my friend once saying "I hate cats" whilst cradling mine in his arm like a baby and stroking his head.

Cats are bad for the planet and horrible for the local ecosystem but if they are already around I will pet them.

- What exactly are indoor only cats doing to the planet & ecosystem?

The look on the cat’s face says, “This is how you dominate a person, amateur.”

Toxoplasmosis

I'm pretty much the same. Cats are terrible creatures and I would never intentionally own one. But I'm not going to hold it against my partner's two cats that they are cats, so they get scritches and nap times with me.

22

The cats have domesticated you.

I have 2 of the vile critters now, one I inherited from my ex, the other one just kind of showed up.

That cat's face says "I fixed him".

15

Or "He's mine now."

- "Where's your boyfriend, Rebecca?"

I like dogs, I just don’t like living with them. I like cats, I just don’t like living with them.

The woman I love, well, she likes living with them.

This is me this morning.

No, this don’t mean I like living with them, but I handle it for her because I love her. Hell, I even love them, but I don’t like living with them.

Like, I really love them. I just don’t like cleaning poo when they screw up or the sneezing because the cat only likes me for some reason. I mean, I’m nice to her because she’s a person too, but I don't really like living with her.

Let's just face the truth, they are the "true" ruler of this planet.

13

So he's dating a human now?

13

That's my wife. When we meet she hated cats, then afer years of cats videos she was like ok i tolerate them, but were not going to have a cat. After meeting some neighbor cats, she was like ok, you can adopt a cat but I'm not going to love him, after a week she was cuddling with him and thanking me for bringing a kitty to our life.

Yeah, it's due to the toxoplasmosis.

cats are very sweet

So you trained your cat to murder you boyfriend as an example to the next?

5

100% me. I never in my life thought I’d be a cat person, then I moved in with my girlfriend (now wife) and her cat, who quickly became my ride or die.

So not actually allergic

Or just too addicted to that cuddle bun to hold back

And who's the human next to him?

Yap true, i'm also gilty at that... 😄

When men are afraid of cuddly things, it is not because we don’t think we’ll connect. It’s because we know we cannot stop ourselves from connecting.

Dad-who-didn’t-want-a-cat sitting there, in love with the cat, isn’t proving himself wrong. He’s proving himself right. This is exactly the situation he wanted to avoid. Being helplessly in love is scary, and animals are so pure that falling in love can’t be avoided.
