DS2 is so allergic that he can't go inside my brother's house because they have 3 cats. And they just don't seem to get it that we really aren't crazy about going to their house because of that. I go anyway, but I start sneezing in about 10 minutes.
But if we weren't allergic, I would definitely choose a cat over a dog. We did wait until the boys were all older to get a dog, but that just means they all have their own lives, and while they love the dog, they don't spend as much time with him as I would like. Makes me think we should have gotten one when they were younger when their lives could have revolved more around him. It would also have been a good way to teach them responsibility.
Mari - I'm anxiously waiting to see cat pics!
