Oh, no. Kitty has to go.

From:

After all this, my allergies have re-awakened. Severely.
I'm already on allergy medication.

My neighbor will take her in, but says she will declaw her on day one.
So I don't want that.

But I won't be able to live all winter this miserable.

Please don't give the cat to your neighbor if they're going to digit amputate
her. As to your allergies, if you're game to try a natural remedy, this has
worked wonders on my husband's allergies to cats He uses the animal dander
one. You can buy this at most any health food store or a Whole Foods:

try the tablets suggested in the other posts, also bath the cat on a regular
basis helps too, well it worked for a friend of mine anyway.

don't let the neighbour have her and declaw her!! why would she want to do
that?

...Ever heard of allergy medicine? I have two cats, am allergic to
cats, and take Claritin (over-the-counter) and am just fine.

Where'd you get your medical degree, Mary? The med school charter should be
verified. FYI, not everyone's ailments, allergies, illnesses are remedied by
medications. I have allergies which have not been fixed by Allegra, Claritin,
Flonaise, etc. Thankfully, I'm not allergic to cats, but I have been to various
allergists with limited results. So...everyone reacts differently. I'd never
part with my babies..unless my lungs collapsed and I had to choose between life
on a respirator and my babies.

Not the point. Point is, animal dander allergies can be successfully
treated without removing the source of the allergen. Not rocket
science, no voodoo involved. Anyone who has had the allergy tests and
swelled at the site where cat dander was introduced can take medicine
to counter the effects.

The subpoint: Mitch already knows all of this.

I'm beginning to suspect that Mitch either

a. does not really want this cat, since at the first sign of any
difficulty he decides that "Kitty has to go" and/or

b. is enjoying jerking the cat lovers around, as in, "I might give her
to a neighbor who will declaw."

And by the way, **** OFF.

Mitch,
Regarding allergies, I hope that you will not give up until you try the
suggestions made elsewhere on this post. Meanwhile, please print out the
declaw information you saw earlier and show it to your neighbor so that she
will understand what the procedure is and why it is not only cruel, but is
also unnecessary.

The point, subpoint, and any other point is that you are stating that all
allergies to cat dander are magically controlled by medication. I have not read
that in any journal nor did my allergy doc - who was last seen 10 days ago -
disclose that to me. We talk turkey (allergy related advancements each visit).
If he doesn't know of this magical development, then you certainly don't have
the accurate info.
