We're just back from going to dinner at DH's business partner's last night a couple hours/a state away and they had a couple cats and we had discovered they live at the bottom of the mountain that my brother, with whom we were going to spend the night, lives at the top of! We took the business partner and his wife up up to meet their "neighbors" last night. My brother and sister-in-law have 4 cats so we're pretty catted out and glad to get back to our babies this afternoon.

Hi Margo and welcome to our team!
I was allergic to cats too till Shadow adopted me a year ago. It's amazing, I no longer itch and sneeze.
You'll love it here on this team, everyone is great!

I am a mother of 3 cats, Gizmo, Ti-Gars and since yesterday a new cat called Josie (Don't think this name goes with him; considering changing it. I think he would be more of a Valentino or Velcro)and 1 dog named Mimi.
Welcome to Emily, Calvin and of course Margo! I'm allergic to cats too but love them anyway; I just take a Claritin a day and deal with it! LOL

Self-control is like a muscle; the more you use it, the stronger it becomes.
Handle every stressful situation like a dog. If you can't eat it or play with it, just pee on it and walk away.

Hi! I'm Margo, companion to Emily and Calvin Klein, both born summer of 2001. Emily was found in my elderly next door neighbor's garage, on a shelf; half wild, full of fleas and worms and barely 8 weeks old (and living outdoors). My neighbors already had a couple cats and couldn't keep her and I took her even though I am allergic :-) My dear Rufus had died a year earlier and all my itching, hives, etc. cleared up! But I quickly became attached to Emily (or rather, she to me) who's named after my great grandmother, my favorite relative/ancestor.
However, she was a bit too clingy, I couldn't get any work done on my computer! I got the brilliant idea to get another cat to distract her. My vet fostered stray/unwanted families of kitties so I went up and Calvin and his 4-5 siblings were up for adoption. The vet techs had named them all for fashion designers! I could have had Ralph but Cal was jumping up and down screaming, "Pick me! Pick ME!" so I did :-) Emily is part Maine Coon so when I got Cal home, despite their only being a few weeks different in age, Emily was much larger and tried to kill Cal the first 3 days until his butt smelled "right" to her :-) Today one can still find Cal crawling out from inside tiny places where he had to go to get away from Emily, despite that he's dominant now and weighs a ton. He just feels better still in small spaces.
They get along fine now but both of them are attention hogs. Cal's laid back, loving nature has rubbed off on Emily some so she's a bit more trusting and he's a tiny bit more reserved and less loud and rambunctuous because of her nature.
