The first time I tried to adopt a cat, my sister and I went into an animal shelter to find a sweet feline in need of a home. However, ten minutes into the visit, I started sneezing, and before I knew it, my eyes started to close and my skin began to swell.
I was sure I was allergic to cats, and that I would never be able to adopt a furry feline of my own. However, I refused to give up, and did every checkup known to man to see what needed to be done so that I could welcome a catto into my home.
Today, I am the purroud owner of two beautiful fur babies, and neither of them makes me sneeze whatsoever.
I can go on and on about my story, but the story below is even more heartwarming than mine. This sweet hooman adopted a senior cat after he was returned twice to the shelter for being "too clingy." Then, the new owner discovered she was definitely allergic to her new furriend, but returning him to the shelter was not an option for her.
