Today, my boyfriend woke up wheezing terribly, aching, and sneezing. He's allergic to cats. I have 2 and they are my babies. He gave me an ultimatum, him or the cats. I haven't figured out how I'm going to tell him that I choose the cats. FML

Bravo for keeping your cats! It's nice to see at least one person who won't dump them just because their bf is allergic.

Ditch him OP. Trust me, from one animal lover to another, he's not worth it. You need a boyfriend/husband/whatever that loves them as much as you do or it will always cause problems. My dog has a $1000 surgery coming up which I happily pay for. If I'd married a guy that didn't love dogs like I do, he'd probably ignore the problem or worse. But since he's another animal lover he's supportive. Treat them like children. You wouldn't date a guy that hates your kids either (hypothetically).

What you said. My dogs are my world...I wouldn't be with anyone who didn't respect that.

Honestly I wouldn't stay with someone who made me choose between them and my pets anyway. People who give you ultimatums aren't worth it.

She's a weirdo if she chose the cats over her bf. Crazy cat lady in the makeing.

YDI for having cats, crazy cat lady! YDI for having a boyfriend, *****! am I missing any angles on this one? oh yeah... YDI for using a comma instead of a colon after the word "ultimatum"!

I'm with #62 and many others: Anyone who would give you such an ultimatum is not worth the breath it takes to tell them to GTFO. I'm thankful to have a SO who understands that ultimatums are for assholes; compromise is where it's at. Even then, he's more into my cat than I am ;) OP, I hope you have the guts to actually go through with it. Your kitties depend on you and will always love you, for the rest of their short little lives.
