Cats have never appealed to me before. I've never minded them, but being allergic has always kept me at a distance. Then I got married and we moved into Matt's parent's basement. They have two cats. Suddenly, I'm not allergic anymore! At least not to the extent I was before. Its totally true what they say, if you spend enough time with something you are allergic to, you can build up the immunities you need to handle being around it!
Now Matt loves cats. He's always grown up with them and I've promised him we can have a cat someday. But suddenly, everywhere we go I see adorable kittens and he is the one who has to be the grownup and tell me "not now". Tell me I don't want a kitten!
I don't know if its my nurturing instincts kicking in and I just want another tiny animal to care for, but I seriously want a kitten! Matt tells me to think logically. Wait till we have a house with a garage, for the litter box. Wait till you are home all day and can watch the kitten and care for it. Wait until you aren't pregnant, so you don't have to worry about the germs and cleaning up after it. Tell me I don't want a kitten!
If we got a kitten, my family would never come over again! Most of my siblings are allergic to cats and would have problems being in our house if we got a kitty. Tell me I don't want a kitten!
I need some help, because my will power is almost gone! I have come very close to calling a few people with ads on KSL for adorable little kittens. Every time we drive by the Humane Society sign I pick out which cats I think are the cutest. And every time we go to the pet store to get dog food, I stroll by the kitties for sale and ache to take one home. Tell me I don't want a kitten!
