I really wish myself and my kids weren't allergic to cats. Those are some fine looking kitters

[–] MrShankles@reddthat.com 3 points 4 hours ago

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.

Also I'll leave this song here: https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm27350803 (Or this nice cover: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1G-eaBXgFM)

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:

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 3 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, she very much has the same energy!

[–] Speiser0@feddit.org 2 points 2 hours ago

And she balances a TARDIS on her head. Wow!

They're going to be fun little varmints.

The guy on the right is exactly why I love cats. His face screams 'I'm cute and you know it!'

[–] sudoMakeUser@sh.itjust.works 98 points 1 day ago (2 children)

The one on the left is going to snuggle all day and the one on the right is going to knock things off of counters at 3am.

[–] DrSleepless@lemmy.world 22 points 1 day ago (1 children)

And yet, the one on the right is my favorite

Is your username coincidence?

This legitimately happened to one of my former colleagues 🤣 Told them where the largest local shelter is, and next thing I knew boom they had 2 cats in their apartment one week later

Being that cute should be illegal.

Cats: lol gottem

[–] scarabic@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Keeping sibs together is doing gods work

When I got my two cats, the guy who owned them wouldn't let them go unless they went together. I was happy to take them both anyway so it wasn't a problem. They're not even siblings, they've just been together since they were kittens.

The look on the cats face says it all: we never doubted for a moment.

[–] Iamcanadian@piefed.ca 22 points 1 day ago

Your wife is pretty smart. 😉

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 22 points 1 day ago

To the spouses: try telling them you're just going to play with the animals in order to help socialize them....

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

fffffffffffffuuuuuuuu

Did you learn what the adoption process is like?

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago

I've seen that one on Reddit at least ten years ago. Cute little buggers, though.

[–] thorhop@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 day ago

They look like two mischievous rapscallions. Kudos.

[–] X@piefed.world 11 points 1 day ago

Mike and Tucker: pawbump

[–] rogsson@piefed.social 9 points 1 day ago

I would’ve done the same :3

[–] snoons@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 day ago

Mike looks so smug lol.

This is going to be me in the near future
