So one of my kids is highly allergic to cats, but really wants a pet cat. I thought a good solution would be to get a cat girl. My wife is not totally thrilled by the idea, but I’m sure I could convince her. What are your thoughts?

    It’s actually the saliva that makes people allergic. And since cat girls tend to lick everyone and everything it wouldn’t improve the situation.

    Just in case this isn’t a bit: OP, the structure in English should be “adjective noun.” The opposite to most romantic languages where you say the noun then the description word. So a cat girl is a girl (assumed human) that can be described as a cat (has the traits of a cat). A girl cat is more reasonably a cat that is a girl, though you’d probably say “female cat” more often. For allergies you’d want to look into hypoallergenic cats like the hairless sphynx.

    Sounds like you’re about to speedrun a divorce and have to pay for your kids therapy and be put on a list that prevents you from from going near where children are.

    Isn’t that slavery? Unless she gets a salary I guess? Would she be living with you full time? I don’t understand. Is your kid only allergic to male cats? I don’t understand.

          So that sounds like slavery/human trafficking.

          Besides, I don’t think there’s enough room under the bridge.

          And you think it’s funny to force humans to act like animals? Because outside of humor (pretty dark) and sex, I’m not getting it

            No-one is forcing anyone. It’d be entirely consenting. But if I find a person who wants to be a cat, and I want a cat without the allergens I don’t see the problem.

            You could ask OP to tell you where he was going to get his, but I guess you could get a state-issued cat girl, or at least get it fully paid for by your insurance if you’ve got allergies.
