| advice Hi, There are SOOOOO many other unwanted cats out there... I doubt you'll be able to find it a home. Try this first PLEASE! I discovered that I was allergic to cats and I didn't want to separate from my sweeties so I found some meds that do the job, and they are CHEAP!! I'm sure you have heard of Flonase, well don't get that because its expensive. They offer a generic version of Flonase called "fluticasone propionate nasal spray". It works wonders! I even cut the dosage in half (one spray/nostril/day vs two) and I still have relief. Since its generic, my insurance only charges me $7/28-day supply and since I use half the perscribed amount I only pay half that! It does require a perscription though, and that's easy enough. So, do your kids and the cat a favor and tell that new person to deal with it. The cat was there first. Get the nasal spray, its cheap, and it'll teach your kids that getting a pet is a life-time committment : ) |

| She'd be better off getting rid of the boyfriend than her family pet. A guy allergic to cats is just about worthless. Guys are supposed to suck it up and suffer in silence.

![]() I had a friend once who ended up with kittens when she was allergic. She took the meds and it greatly helped. After a couple years, she hardly needed the meds as much (and she was bad when the cats first showed; her eyes would swell up visibly and get puffy red). | |

| Hey me too! I think it comes and goes. For a while last year I didn't need any, now I'm taking them like everyother day. Growing up I didn't have any, and my mom had anwhere from 6-12 indoor/outdoor cats. Now I only have 2 and it's on and off. |

| I'm allergic to cats and I just take Zyrtec or OCT Claritin when I get bothered by the allergies. I'd dump the person who just moved in or they'd have to learn to deal with it. |
