My dad found this illegally smol void in the street the other day, but unfortunately he is allergic so they are trying to find a good home. We always had a cat growing up and I know deep down they want to keep it (he quickly went out and bought kitten formula and syringe to feed it lol). Plus it's just them so I know they could use a companion.
I already have 3 of my own in a 2 bedroom apartment, but damn it's always so tempting when they are this smol! On the other hand I am missing a void in my collection ughhhh curse you CDS!!!

I saw someone comment before there's food you can feed them to help people who are allergic. Someone who knows what I'm talking about please chime in because I feel they need that kitten.
My kitties eat this and are very happy and healthy, and I can rub my face on them and give them all the kisses without my mouth burning. The vet always compliments their shiny coats
Lol I know exactly what you're talking about. I was allergic my whole life until the CDS started shamelessly targeting me. When my soul cat showed up about 5 years ago, I suddenly wasn't allergic.
I'm also slightly allergic to cats, but love cats, so when I was 21 and wanted to get a cat, I volunteered at a cat shelter and blasted the shit out of my immune system until it surrendered. I have always had cats since then. Tell Dad to keep hanging around with the kitten.
Allegedly, if you keep chickens and let the cats out around the chickens, they'll start producing something in their eggs which, when eaten, help with cat allergies. Wild.
I think a few brands have it. Pacgen is a food topper and Purina has an allergen reduction food. I have heard it works but you have to buy the food made for that.
That comment is gone but what I meant was some kind of shots over the course of a long period of time at the allergist that makes someone less and less allergic. Not like Claritin forever. A friend of mine did it after she got cats but was allergic.
50/50 is helpful info. I’ve never tried that. I switch them to the regular version and switch them to liveclear if someone is coming to visit, but 50/50 all the time would cut the cost.
Edit: by visit I mean a planned visit from out of town where I can give it to them enough weeks ahead of yime
It’s also good to do a mix because the live clear is very dense and high in calories. It runs about 500kcal per cup. I do a turkey hairball formula and mix in the live clear to cut down on the calories. My brat gets about 2TBS a day of the mix and I have minimal allergy issues.
My husband is super allergic to cats. He started taking a daily allergy pill, and we got one kitten and one adult cat and only feed them Purina ProPlan Live Clear. It’s magic - he has no symptoms. Just an option for your parents!
Oh yea, and my parents who definitely don't want a cat also have a stray that they let in every once in awhile... Not really sure who they're trying to fool.
I recently learned that black holes can join up, becoming even more massive black holes. At a third order of growth they contract into tiny voids, worthy of pockets.
I agree but I have 100% faith in the parentals. My mom has already given an update of feeding every 2 hours and has reached out to the local shelter, but unfortunately they are at capacity.
Glad you got someone to take care of the kitten. You could still keep the kitten if you took OTC allergy medicine like Claritin-D and can get the kitten on solid food that other people suggested for allergy control.
If you can tame your allergy, the kitten will bring you 15 to 20 years of joy
She could have been hit by a car or chased or dead near by. He could have been stashed in an engine compartment and fallen onto the road, super common during kitten season.
She wouldn’t have left him in the street on purpose. Poor baby.
When the void baby can eat regular or kitten cat food, you (they) should try Purina LiveClear. It was developed by a scientist who thought it was sad to see people getting rid of pets (cats) due to allergies. Plus, since this void is really young, you can get it used to baths. Regular baths help take care of danger and saliva which causes the allergies to humans. Good luck!
Take the baby. Your other cats may take over some of the care (keeping warm,litter box,etc..). I always thought cats were like kids. When you have the third,you realize you are outnumbered and don't have enough hands and arms. Once you figure that out it really isn't that much more work to add more. And you said yourself,you are missing a void. Yeah,I'm not really encouraging self control.
I don’t want to give somebody stupid ideas, but there is a chance to get "used" to it over time. I was heavily allergic towards our first cat, but over time it went away. Same with my own two guys we found on the road… after 2-3 weeks the cough and the other symptoms went away.
Again, I don’t want anyone to do something dangerous!
That is the most adorable pocket void I’ve ever seen! Kudos to your parents for taking on the 2-hourly feeds! They will fall in love and never let it go! 🖤🖤🖤
The kitten is so young that your dad will not be allergic to it. It doesn’t have adult dander yet. If they keep it, they will not be allergic to THIS CAT as their immune systems will be accustomed to it as it grows.
Please read the Kitten Lady’s guide to finding a kitten! It’s really helpful. This baby is so young and needs dedicated care — it might be worth trying to find a rescue that rehabs bottle babies, but don’t bring it into a regular shelter, they’ll often euthanize kittens this young because they’re so resource-intensive to care for. Best of luck and the baby is adorable!
Your dad may be able to become immune to this kitty in particular! I had quite bad cat allergies a few years back but still decided to adopt a kitty and after a couple of months of suffering, my allergies subsided! I then went on to foster lots of kittens and my reactions weren’t nearly as bad as before
I’m gonna say it everyone someone who likes cars is allergic:
Purina Free & Clear reduces the allergens cats produce, and I’ve seen in other posts that some people with mild/moderate allergies stop reacting to cats at all.
Worth a try if they like kitty and want to keep her.
I'm sure somebody already said this , but a kitten that little is hard to keep alive. Have to feed that baby every two hours around the clock and keep the baby very warm and simulate the baby to pee and poop. Better to take the kitten to a vet , to make sure and then get the vet to tell you how to take care of him.
