Is this you or a loved one?

When you love animals but your body has decided to physically reject them then here are ten things you'll definitely relate to...

1) The endless questioning. Are you allergic to rabbits? Yes. Cats? Yes. Dogs? Yes. The list goes on...

2) The guilt of knowing you're condemning your none allergy suffering partner to a life without pets. Sometimes you think they wished they'd picked pets...

3) Having to pick your friends wisely. If you know they have pets then you're never going to be able to pop round for drinks or dinner.

4) Becoming allergic to people. If someone's just hugged their cat then you become allergic to them by proxy.

5) The endless sneezing fits. Your record is a really high number.

6) Feeling sad watching funny animal videos. You'll never know that joy first hand.

7) The consequences of when you've gone rogue and petted the adorable puppy. The eyes and breathing goes bad for days

8) Not being able to go to the zoo. The nearest you can get is an in car safari with the windows shut at all time.

9) Facing spending a ridiculous amount of money for a hypoallergenic animal

10. Finally just the longing to have the love of an animal. Guess we'll have to settle for having kids instead (jokes...)
