My sister in law told me if I didn't get rid of my pets she wouldn't come over anymore: Advice?

Well I guess she. An cut herself off then. No one should demand anyone get rid of their pet.

Your children are your priority, health, food,happiness. She is protecting hers…you do the same. Sorry guess we will talk on the phone.

Bye sis in law!!! My little boy has a cat and he’s actually allergic to her he’s eyes get very sore in the summer months so I Hoover twice as much dust twice as much because the cat is my sons life … your home your pets don’t let anyone tell you different she’s actually very selfish even asking that!

Pets are FAMILY and I’m sure you feel this. She doesn’t have to come over it’s that simple. She’s being dramatic to say out everyone’s life. That’s too much. And if you want to help you could always bring clean clothes to change into while visiting

If she has only been there twice in 2 years getting rid of a pet isnt going to all of a sudden have her coming around more. If she didnt like your kids would you get rid of them. Obviously not. They have meds for allergies or just meet outside with her.

Keep the cat. My entire family is very allergic to cats (except for me) and I was still able to live in their house for a few months WITH my cat. They took allergy medicine, stayed away from the places the cat roamed and I vacuumed frequently :woman_shrugging:t2:.

She sounds narcissistic for demanding that everyone fall in line for her. I have kiddos with allergies to cats. We either don’t go to their house and ask them to come over, or we meet up somewhere to hang out. It would not be my place, family or not, to expect others to get rid of their animals.

Keep the cat. When she is done freaking out she will come back around. If not then it either wasn’t about the cat or you saved yourself 2 headaches a year :woman_shrugging: sorry your going through this.

Keep the cat. Unless a doctor has explicitly told her that a reaction was caused by a cat while she was in your house, she has no reason to think it’s the cat. It could be literally anything. And even if it was the cat, they have allergy stuff specific for people allergic to pets they could get.

Keep the cat! If she really wants to see you she would invite you and your family to her house!!

no that is asking to much. Why don’t she ask t he world to stop for her. Either put the kid on an allergy pill or leave her home. Why should your child be punished.

She’s only been to your house twice? Your pets are there everyday AND your kids are attached to them… keep the pets!! :heart: She should understand that. It’s wrong for her to even TRY to give you an ultimatum!

From the parent of a child who carries an epi pen for her cat allergy, it’s my soul responsibility to make sure I keep my kid away from them. That means we don’t go to people’s houses that have them. But we instead have them over to ours. She also takes two meds daily to control allergies. Your sister in law is trash. Her loss

I am allergic to animals and would never expect my family or friends to get rid of their pets. I take allergy medicine before I go to their homes. She might not want to do that so just go to their house and meet up somewhere else.

My son in law is allergic to our cat so he takes allergy medicine

That’s a bit extreme to cut people off. If she’s truly allergic to cats I understand not wanting to come to the house, but you could go to her house or meet somewhere to hang out. There’s so many other options besides being a bitch and cutting you off because you won’t cave to her.

What SIL? I would never get rid of my fur babies for anyone. My house my, rules. You can always see them outside your home.

Forget about them. If they are truly worried about allergies they will get the kid tested before saying anything like that. Plus if they are there very often give the kids an allergy pill before you go.

I have a small dog rescued her when she was 7 weeks out of a puppy mill now she going to be 17 …if anyone tells me iwant to come over and visit but you have to get rid of the dog .then they are asking the wrong person love my fur baby

Definitely keep your pet if your sister in law chooses not to come over so be it

Go to her house to visit or a restraunt to visit. Take a short vacation & rent a house together. Don’t get rid of your pets.

Go visit her if you must

They are in the wrong. There are plenty of allergy meds she can take and still come around. You shouldn’t have to get rid of your pet for them. They dont want a pet? Ok. But to tell you to get rid of yours is wrong.

Well let’s think for a moment…sister in law meaning through a marriage sooooo with that being said, say you get rid of the cat for her to be able to come over and then god forbid anything happen between you and your spouse then you don’t ever have to see the SIL again and you are without the cat…soooo the way ii see it is…Screw the SIL and do what makes YOUR children happy!!! I will NEVER get rid of a member of my family just to make someone else happy!!!

She’s definitely in the wrong. Saying she’ll cut off any family members that don’t get rid of their pets is controlling and toxic. She can invite your family over to her house if she actually cares about having a relationship with y’all. She doesn’t live in your house or pay your bills, she doesn’t get to tell you that you can’t have pets. Keep the cat… & get more cats :joy:

As someone with allergies I must say that it would be unadvisable for them to come to your home as long as you have a cat and it would be best if you go to see them that you ensure you are not bringing any cat dander with you. That being said she shouldn’t ask you to get rid of your cat any more than you should ask her to get rid of her child.

My rule in life: if someone threatens to cut you off for whatever reason, let them. If you are that easily disposable to them, they aren’t worth it. Life is too short for people with conditions. Don’t sacrifice or fight to keep people in your life who would never do the same for you.

I have a 3 year old highly allergic to dog dander. My fiancé’s mother has 2 dogs inside her home. She comes and visits him in our home at her discretion because she knows what the dander does to my son. Sounds like the sister n law needs to relax and compromise. Keep your cat.

Keep the pets! Dont make your kids miserable and the animals go to a shelter cause your sister in law is being unreasonable. Your immediate family is most important and your kids will always resent you if you get get rid of your pets. If she doesnt want to come over than fine! Meet somewhere else

Are u serious right now? The cat stays. Its ur house. she cant tell u what 2 do in ur house. Shes crazy if she thinks the whole family is going 2 get rid of yalls pets because of an allergy. Theres a thing called benadryl and in serious cases if need be epinephrine. If she doesnt like it she doesnt have 2 come around and u guys can always go visit them. There are less drastic measures and I’m sure shes just overreacting I doubt shesgoing 2 cut everyone out who doesnt decide 2 loose their pets. If she does she wasnt worth trying 2 keep around anyway.
