Russ is a good guy.
Mikey is better after I explained Russ's allergies.
Cat dander is a powerful allergen. Our daughter's fiance' is allergic and so is my grandson who dearly loves cats. My brother was so allergic he had conjunctival edema. (The whites of his eyes became swollen)
It is not something to take lightly.
I am sorry you don't like kitties Russ, but you have a good reason.
The G's (even Mikey) will like you and your lovely wife.
We can sit in the garage and have a beer.
