Thanks Shelley. I didn’t know that.

Annie, some cats (~1 in 50,000) naturally don’t produce the allergen that affects people. We get people at our shelter who come in and huff the cats trying to find one.

In certain feline circles, this is known as the “Siamese Surprise”, and it leaves no marks on it’s victim. Most curious….

That’s gonna leave a huge hickey!

KGCarrie. We had a longhaired tabby cat that even people with allergies were not bothered by for some reason. I also kept him brushed and the furniture vacuumed but it must be that some cats do not put off as much dander or maybe their saliva isn’t as irritating.

from across the room I see just the very tips of bat cats ears… before I can shout a warning to an unsuspecting mama cat she walks past the trashcan and wham in a flash of fawn and brown bat cat gets her in the throat.

JazzK- cats use their powers for bleen and for evil.

Looks like there’s a molten siamese kitty sneaking up on that garbage can cat in the first pic…

If my fat cat ever goes all molten and liquidy, I hope he uses his powers for good, not evil.

Faye – I’m still laughing my a** off over the “free hammie with a bag of lemons” ruse. Brilliant. I can’t believe my kid never thought of it. Of course, I always gave in way too easy…that’s prolly why.

KGCarrie, ((Hugs)) I hope you can get a pet soon… becasue they are wonderful. I would also suggest a rat. If it has to be small they are smart and very cuddly they love attention. THe only problem is they are short lived. Good luck with getting the hubby to conceed. My hubby also did the I hate cats thing but really he loves them and the old softy is the first one to cave when a stray shows up at the door. We have adopted several thru the years.
