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 😌

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.

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 :(

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!
