Hey guys, Ive got a unusual situation and
im wondering if any of you can help me?
Particularly any doctors?
Well, I live in a appartment complex and
this old woman just bought home a kitten
and its pissing me off because she lets it
out in the hall ways and its always doing
cat noises and scratching at the carpets
and I just hate cats! lol
Well, I have told her that I dont like the
cat and I would like her to get rid of it.
Ive told her that im allergic to it,
(which I think I might be) because I
always get hay fever and a itchy noise.
She said that if i can get a
medical/doctors cert stating that im
allergic she will get rid of it.
Well, im wondering if there are any
doctors or any one else that has had a
medical report stating that they are
allergic to cats? Like anyone have any
idea what I can put in the report stating
that im allergic? Like some technical
smart doctors words? lol
Or if theres a doctor thats just willing
to write me a short paragraph that they
would usually write for someone thats
allergic to cats and I will add my name
in! that would be rad
Any help will be appreciated!
thanks

First of all, that is very rude of her to
expect the other residents to put up with
an annoying cat in the hallways. As a
responsible pet owner, she should keep her
cat inside so that others are not
bothered. Some areas have laws against
this, I know my state does. There is a
leash law here that extends to cats as
well. Call the local animal control and
ask them what you can legally do so that
the cat is not a nuisance to you.
She's got a large pair of coconuts to tell
you to get a medical note to get rid of
the cat. She doesn't necessarily have to
get rid of the cat but she should keep it
inside her house. Hope this was helpful.

She's pretty rude for letting her cat run
around.
Have you contacted the owner of the
complex? Perhaps there's something in the
lease that doesn't allow you to let your
pets run freely in the hallways.
Yes, you can be allergic to cats. I
am..... and can't have cats of my own.
But perhaps you should research your legal
rights at a tenant and contact the owner
of the complex and complain. If you want
to get nasty - contact the SPCA or other
animal control association. There's
gotta be laws that prevent that.

Im Allergic to Cats Aswell Posted: 10-12-07 18:35pm
You can in fact get tested by a Medical
Allergy Specialist (Allergist).
This is where I learned I had hay fever,
and my allergy to cats, when i was
actually trying to see if i was allergic
to bee stings.
I don't see a problem with them writing a
note to give to your neighbor to let her
know you have the allergy, if in fact you
do have the allergy.
Look in your local phone book for your
nearest allergist.
And if you're not allergic to cats, you
might find out something equally
important.
Thanks.

Pretty rude of that lady...
Yes you can easily get something that says
you are allergic to cats if you are. All
you need to do is go in for an allergy
test with some allergist, and ask for a
paper with the results.
