The compound, tested in mice bred to be allergic to cats, [...]

I didn't know you had to breed them for that.

I wish they would go straight to the other possible uses. I have already decided I am not getting anymore cats.

I get asthma and hives. So naturally my husband lets our cat in the house. I adopted the cat from one neighbor who passed away to control the rats coming from another neighbors yard.

Actually, I read about a study about why people who either don't like, or are alergic to cats, seem to attract them... (this is series, not a joke...)

For a lot of people who are either alergic to cats, or simply don't care for them, that they become "cat magnets" when visiting the homes of friends who own cats.

Researchers have found that these people tend to avert their eyes when they see a cat, and the cat fixes on them as a "subordinate" in the group. It then comes over to "mark you" with its scent glands, on the face or base of the tail.

For those who don't want a cat to come over, be sure to meet its gaze, and in effect, stare it down, letting it know that you're superior. Then the cat will tend to keep its distance.

The approach could be used to protect people from a wide array of allergies, the researchers said.

No, thanks. I'm allergic to liberals and I don't want to get better.
