Umm.. Okay. If it were a cat she's had already before she met you then I would say that's normal, honestly. Getting rid of a pet for a partner is like throwing your kid away for a partner albeit yeah, unfortunately some parents do that... But most wouldn't.
This is a differnt situation entirely though. You guys live together I assume? It's very bad to decide to adopt a pet you know your partner is severely allergic to. Maybe she wants a cat really badly, I dont know, but obviously she should've discussed it with you first. I know that there's allergy pills and even shots, and I know there's plenty of people with terrible cat allergies who was able to get a cat and never experience any issues after treating their allergy. I don't know if you've ever tried that? But if not that's kind of something you'd propose to the person you live with -before- just bringing the cat home. So maybe it's for the best then. Seems you guys had some communication issues.
