Famous People Who Are Allergic to Cats
Cats are the only domesticated species in the family Felidae favored by the more laidback individuals who enjoy the loving companionship that these felines can offer. Unlike dogs or any other pets, cats do not require much care and maintenance as they only sleep most of the time.
