@S_r_stone ...unless you're allergic...then you only get to love them from afar *sigh*
@Avidspark I am allergic. I just resolve to suffer a bit for it.
I have a mild allergy for dogs and severe for cats. (Lived with a cat for a while too. I just can't pet them without immediately washing my hands.)
@S_r_stone That's pretty much how it is for me too, but with dogs I'm okay if I wash my hands right after petties, but cats now just send me to the hospital.
Ex-wife had 7 cats...it's one of the reasons we're no longer married...even after seeing me get life-flighted for a really severe attack, she simply refused to give them up. I loved her, but she was crazy.
No question whatsoever.
Can’t even imagine the odor with which you lived. Just the thought makes me gag.
Pets are not more valuable than our partner.
