My wife and I are both allergic. Long story short: we suffered, bought an oversized (HEPA) air-purifier (plus some small ones), suffered some more, then became much more tolerant of the allergens... only took a few years to not have asthma upon waking up

So, it can be done — but your mileage and allergies may vary. Downside is, a lot of my family is very allergic too, so staying at my house is almost non-optional. Upside is, loving best friends and... staying at my house is almost non-optional if allergic

We keep a pet-free guest bedroom for reprieve, but ya gotta want it. Antihistamines available upon request

My husband is allergic. So I post cats to Lemmy instead.

Thank you so much for what you do! You are one of the two futurama users who make a large amount of content on lemmy that makes me happy! I didn't know there was a tragic background.

You’re welcome! I love cats so damn much… all animals, really. I have 2 dogs myself.

Hazel gives similar vibes as the pun dog:

Yes, she very much has the same energy!

And she balances a TARDIS on her head. Wow!
