  Yeah, there are shots, but just so you can tolerate being around kitties, not cure the allergy.

    I don't mean the standard allergy shots. There's something new. 5t's just one or two shots.

      I found this on a website:
      I had heard that allergy shots specifically for cat allergies were being developed. Do you know anything about this?
      
      speaker: It is possible but you can only desensitize to the specific animal involved and it seems silly to try to desensitize to an animal the person insists in remaining in contact with. It's like taking anti-snake venom so one can continue to handle rattlesnakes.

        cats are a lot more cuddly than rattle snakes.

          I agree as a cat owner who needs a baby carrier as mine is so attached to me. That speaker makes you want to go see 'Snakes of a Plane', doesn't he?
