Fur baby allergies are weird AF.

When we met, Mrs. George adopted one my post-divorce cats - Chervil. We had to re-home her because of apartment restrictions.

We moved to a place with no restrictions and got two cats (Sadie and Oscar). Her asthma got so bad with these two cats that Benadryl did nothing. She was injecting sub q epinephrine (!) to stop the wheezing. We had to get rid of the cats.

When D3 had to re-home The Bee, she asked us. Shockingly, there we no reactions. The only thing I can think of is that The Bee was a long-hair cat. Somewhere, I read that long-hairs are less allergenic. After The Bee died, we got Maggie (another domestic long-hair) with the caveat that we could return if there was a problem. There wasn't.

Mrs. George attributes it to allergy shots she got. That may be the case.

There's no issue with Boris.

Go figure.

The cats are a back and forth for me. They hit me hard Friday morning… I had to take 2 Benadryl and Karla had to drive down to Newport News, but for the rest of the weekend the cats were in the hotel room with us, sleeping in the bed with me and Karla, and not a problem…

Since we got back, the car an are hanging out outside the bedroom at night saying “hey… What’s the deal?! Why aren’t we in there?”

Could it be something else in the house?

OK - I don't understand.

You're OK with the cats in a hotel, sleeping in your bed, etc.

When you get home, you're not OK with the cats?

Did I get that right?

Some days the cats hit me harder than others. I’m in a bit of an adjustment phase with them.

Some guys are the same way with hookers, or so I've been told.

That's a cutie.

Yeah, she is very nice and entirely pick-upable. This whole weekend I think is going to be a "get acclimated" weekend. I do this weird thing where I find a sock I'm going to throw away anyway and give it to her to play with, because that doubles as learning what I smell like.

Kinda weird but rabbits eat their own poop and it's hygienic for them, so, different rules. Smelly socks are alright.

SO cute. You just want to eat him up.

Wait…that didn’t sound right…..

Hey Aqua, I hate to tell you this, but I think your grey and black rabbit fell into the bleach…

I can't tell if she's wearing a white sweater or black pants.

I make stew jokes all the time. Fortunately, it seems she doesn't know English.

It gets worse. I had bunny Ragu with sweet potato gnocchi the other night. A noble end for a rabbit.

Cute bunny!

I think that before we do anything like that, we should explore the possibilities of internet stardom and TikTok monetization. Then if that doesn't work we can try the cooking thing and go viral from the controversy. Hypercapitalism FTW.

I say you go both routes. Have the internet fall in love with Mr. Rogers, then eat him.

You'd do well in marketing!
