it seems like a third of all my friends are allergic to cats, and any time they come over they start going through sneezing/sniffling fits. how many of you are allergic to cats? I'm curious what percent of people are actually allergic to them

anybody know what causes it, before I run over to google?

I don't like cats.

Cats are gay dogs.

Re: cats

I'm allergic to cats. I'm allergic to dogs. I'm allergic to birds and trees - anything with fur, feathers of spores. Oh, and dust mites. I had three tortoises when I was a kid. I wasn't allergic to them. Tortoises are nice, but its very difficult to tell whether your tortoise is male or female. I think I had three males but one of them kept trying to shag the other two so either he was a she, or he was gay. He was pretty butch though.

On a slightly more serious note - I heard once that allergies go on a seven year cycle and this has been my experience. I developed allergies when I was seven. When I was twenty one they started to become much less extreme and when I was about twenty eight I started to develop eczema. Fortunately none of these ever developed much past the annoying stage.

Damn dude, just lock yourself in a padded room with no windows.

Re: cats

^^^ As long as the padding is synthetic and not made of feathers I'll be alright!!! :lol:

#469323Post 23 of 252005-09-01

^yeah, it doesn't make sense to me either. I expected 25% to be allergic... not 50% :?

#469327Post 24 of 252005-09-01

Love kitten! We have one, and he is wild and biting. But he just want to play...

[quote=picklemonkey]^yeah, it doesn't make sense to me either. I expected 25% to be allergic... not 50% :?[/quote] It's not curious to me at all. Nearly everyone I meet has some sort of allergy - animal fur, hay fever, ashma, etc. It's on the up. Something to do with the overly sanitized lifestyle that we are all living now. The body doesn't have the chance to build up its immune systems or tolerance systems when we are young.
