Cat Picture - OC I sometimes visit the cats at my local petco because my family is allergic and said we can’t get one. They are sisters 😌

They are so cute and one of them kept letting me pet her nose through the holes. They are making my days to!

I used to go to a nearby shelter over my lunch break and pick one cat to visit with (ie, take out of its cage to a visiting room). Hopefully they enjoyed it as much as I did! I'm sure the kitties enjoy your visits.

I actually just signed up to volunteer for 2+ hours a week at my local cat shelter! I can’t wait to take care of all the cute kitties

💗 and maybe some day when you have a place of your own you can have a cat.

That's gotta suck. Im so glad The One above all granted me a good immune system for critters at least. I hate that ya gotta miss out on the love. It's something.

Oh I know. When I lived with my ex, she had a cat and unfortunately neglected it. So when I came along and stepped in, I would constantly wake up with her sleeping on my chest. The bottle of Benadryl a month is so worth it! I’m also highly allergic :(

I also go there and check out the kittens. My husband isn’t doing very well so we can’t have one either.

I volunteer there for the same reason! It’s how I get my kitten time since I can’t have my own cat.

I'm a bit allergic to them, too, but that hasn't stopped me. The answer is allergy pills (if they work for you).

They work for me and even if they didn’t I’d be willing to suffer for a cute furball but it’s my family that won’t :(

This is so sweet of you! I hope they'll come to recognize you!

I love this! I volunteer at our local cat shelter 2 hours a week. I am the allergic one and I'm constantly traveling for work so I can't have any of my own, but at least this way I get kitten cuddles!
