A simple way would be that he can't visit you at your place, only you visit him. However before you visit him you have to change into new clothes without all the cat hair and stuff, so that his allergies won't act up. If the two of you really love each other, you will find a way to make it work.

It has been my experience that women come to adopt 1 or 2 cats and speak of having gotten rid of their wonderful cats for their husband or boyfriend and now he is gone and they swear they will never do that again.
Perhaps I can give you a little advice. He is most likely allergic to the dander on the cat. Dander is kind of sticky so it sticks to everything so you have to vacuum, vacuum, vacuum. You have to wipe down the walls and wooden furniture. Then take the cat to the same spot and brush it thoroughly and then vacuum up that spot right away. You should brush it at least once a week. Then wipe the kitty down with one of those sheets you throw in the dryer when you do laundry. Do this about 2 or 3 times a week. This takes the static out of the kitty's fur and the dander stays on the kitty until you brush it out of his fur. When bf comes over put the cats in a room so they can't sit on him. You might want to throw a cover over your upholstered furniture either when he is not there and remove it when he visits, or put it on the furniture when he is there.
This method is for people who get red eyes and a runny nose, etc. If he is allergic to the saliva (which would make him break out) he would have to wash his hands every time he touches them.
Perhaps if he is serious he will not want you to give up something that makes you happy and will speak to an allergist about getting help. Goodluck

Siberians fee interior the $2,000 variety. a lots much less complicated thank you to 'verify' is to furnish your place as a foster for a cat or kitten. call the nearby guard and ask to fulfill up as a foster domicile, they're going to have you ever're taking one cat to socialise and carry on the same time as they wait to have a cage open up for them. You get the cat for about a minutes, have the alternative of adopting them in case you locate there is not any longer lots of an allergic reaction challenge, and in case you may no longer medically shop a cat, the cat is going lower back to the guard once you turn it over to them or they ask for it lower back. Your surgeon ought to look into the greater present day drugs for you, you additionally can attempt the allergic reaction photos. yet i genuinely advise a short term trial like this, so which you have the excellent possibility of no longer having to have the cat re-homed.

There's simpler ways yes getting rid of the cats or the B/F would both work but making the cats stay outside as long as he has some polarimine handy and doesn't play with them he should be fine if not he'll leave if he can't handle it let it be his choice don't get rid of your cats they're innocent victims in all of this

Ok im allergic to cats and my boyfriend has one. I just try to keep away from his cat as long as possible. I do stroke the cat now and again but staright after i wash my hands.
Are your cats house bound or do they like to adventure?
.If they do like to adventure then there's no need for you to get worried. But if there housebound its your choice to keep your cats out of the areas you and your boyfriend are .

if you're asking this question, than you're questioning whether you really love your boyfriend. this might seem kind of cold; cats are only animals and pets at that. I grew up on a farm and we were taught to respect all life and, when it comes down to it, humans come first. don't get me wrong, we took excellent care of the animals that we had and they were quite content and didn't lack for anything; we still made sure that our family didn't lack for anything first.
Still, I do understand that there's an emotional attachement to the pets that you have. what you could do is talk to your boyfriend and see if he would be willing to go to an allergist and take any medication to help him alleviate his allergies to cats or not.
if he's not willing to do that than you may want to lean towards keeping the cats...
just my 2 cents.

have him take some Benadryl before he comes over. I take that when I go see my guy because his roommate has two cats that roam through the whole house, and I feel just fine (as long as I take a dose). The times ive gone without it are hell for me
