Husband has promised Lallie a cat for her birthday. This is wonderful as Lallie absolutely ADORES cats and is always pretending to be one, playing with one or chasing one. Whenever a cat is in the vicinity, there is nothing else that can distract her.
BUT, Husband and I have huge allergies to cats, as does Lallie (we think - not 100% sure yet). So, Husband has done a bit of research and discoverd that Siberian cats are hypo-allerginic. While there is not hard scientific evidence of this claim, most owners with pure-bred Siberians have documented their hypo-allergenic qualities for nearly 10 years. This is wonderful news for us.
So, our quest for a "titty tat" has begun. I love the fact that these cats can get quite large (nearly 20 lbs.) I want to start off with a kitten, because I want a kitten and because I think U.K., our golden retriever, will be more gentle with a kitten starting out then a full grown cat (as evidenced by visits with UK to my parents, it's genearlly a rat race through the house!)
Those kittens are ridiculously adorable! My mom is allergic and I think I may be too:( They have such personality
ReplyDeleteYou could name it after me since you didn't name Lallie after me :-). Just a thought!
ReplyDeleteToooo cute! I can't wait to see pictures of your Titty Tat!! PS - I love that name UK for your dog :)
ReplyDeletereally? I am a true cat person, but my hubs is allergic to them, so we don't have one. I will have to look into this breed too.
ReplyDeleteAhh, Just too cute.
