Yeah, they look all cute and lovable. Until they make my sinuses explode. I’ve been heading over to a friend’s house once a week to play some games, and his cats are killing me. Hopefully not literally, but I have a severe allergic reaction every time that Claritin seems helpless against. I’m not exactly sure what to do, other than call my doctor and try to get a prescription for something stronger. Any suggestions?

You can take Benadryl before heading over, but it may prevent you from enjoying the game as much. Your friend could buy a filter for the game room – it has really helped me be around cats. The best one I have found so far is the Honeywell 18155N SilentComfort Permanent, True HEPA Air Purifier. The other option is to get allergy shots based on the cats.

Yeah, Benadryl knocks me out. We’re actually playing at the guy’s mom’s house (apparently his girlfriend thinks we’re too loud), so getting a filter or something like that could be difficult. I’m working on convincing them to start playing at my house… I have an appointment with the doctor today, we’ll see what she says.
