Allergies


Well, Avery's introduced us to a scary new world- that of the allergy-sufferer. Eczema, nuts, dog saliva, and now, cats. Namely, our cat, Alvin. We are bummed to discover this considering we've had him for almost five years and Avery absolutely loves him (note above photo). Which basically sums up the problem. We can't keep her away from him. She loves to sit on, cuddle and try to carry him around. And he puts up with it. But, her skin carries the consequences of all that fun- rashy redness and swollen lips- not so fun after all (and very scary for mom). So, we need to give him away. Does anyone know anyone who would like a fat, mellow, good-natured cat who thinks he's a dog? He'll be five this summer and has been neutered. He's essentially an indoor cat and is litter box trained. And although it is hard to tell from this photo, he's beautiful. He is a great cat and we really don't want to send him to the humane society. If you or someone else you know is interested, please let us know asap!

oh no. I wish I could take him, but Matt would have me killed. I will ask around.
