Texto base: DEAR KELLY: My good friend loves cats, and has four of them at her house. I’m not a big cat fan but I can tolerate them. Every time I come home from her house I’m covered in cat hair. Even if I don’t sit on their couch or the floor and I just sit on her bed, my clothes have cat hair all over them. They also let the cats roam all over the house.[...] I love hanging out with her, but I can’t stand all the cat hair and the cats all around me. Last time I was there she was making us food and the cat was walking on the kitchen counter. It was grossing me out. The cat kept walking over and around all the food. When I told her it grossed me out, she got upset and said that the cat never touched the food and I was dramatic. Last night she posted a picture on Instagram of her and two cats and it said, “Stay calm and kitty on.” I know it was directed at me, so now I don’t know what to do. Am I wrong to be totally creeped out by the cats and the cat hair? How do I tell her I would rather not go over to her house anymore because it’s nasty?
