Orange Fluffeh for the Morning
'morning all.

My morning was brightened up when I wandered down to the kitchen and spotted an enormous Orange Kitteh (ginger cat) snooping round the garden of my new abode. This pleased me. Whilst I would like to get acquainted with this source of Fluff, I have to be careful as one of my housemates is allergic to cat hair.

So...should I just restrict myself to molesting the cat outside of the house, or should I drive out my flatmate in favour of someone else's cat?

I'd pet the cat outside
But bring in handfuls of its fur and plant them around the house.

Then your flatmate will think she's allergic to the flat and leave, so you can let the cat in.

I like this idea
kitteh is better than housemate any day.

Bit-by-bit
You can make people less allergic to cats by gradually increasing their contact. They often object, so do it covertly.

You mean I should
leave gradually increasing quantities of cat hair under her pillow, eventually building up to just stuffing the cat inside her pillowcase?

That's it
My best mate moved in with me and the cat, and she got gradually better to the point where she used to let the cat sleep in her boots.
After 6 months, the only time it was a big problem was when a cat hair got in her knickers and she could feel it on the bus, like the Princess and the Pea.

and if you suddenly expose them to too much cat and almost die
oooh boy do they get mad when they find out...
