Cats (and dogs) are better than kids because they don't talk back to you or only call you when they need money.

Pussy is always first! ;)

It's messed up that she said that but it's a pretty easy fix. I found out I was allergic when I adopted my cat but I love him so much that I just decided to get pills. I actually don't even have to take it every day as long as I keep the excess cat hair/dander cleaned up

I love kitties.. I played with a bunch outside at lunch because I found a bunch of kittens and one tried to get in my shirt.

Cats > humans. They own us. Seriously though, I was born severely allergic and three times a doctor told my parents to get rid of our three cats. They never did. My allergies still suck 27 years later. But I love cats all the same.

If it's a kitten you could try training it to take a bath with water. It will help with allergies, since people are allergic to cat dander, not cats. You could also take pills. Really, it's a pretty easy fix OP.

Since the cat is staying, here are my suggestions: make your bedroom a cat free zone. Keep the door shut at all times. Get a hepa air filter for your bedroom (there are small desktop sizes). And shower before going to bed at night. You need to shower to wash any cat dander on you and make sure to wear clean clothes to bed.

My kid or my cat.... hmmmm. Pretty sure I'd go with my kid every time.

Do kids these days not know how to take a joke? I'd keep the cat too, christ. Buy some antihistamines and put your Pampers back on.

I guess your mom is fed up with your consumptions
