    Weird…weird.

    I want to know more.

    I wonder if there are other allergies you can get from animal bites?

    I mean cats can make you allergic to cats by biting or scratching you, I know that.

    I just looked it up, but I can’t find any other ones.

    Oh, this thing says that someone with a pollen allergy can become sensitive to a specific flower if they’re frequently bitten by bees that collect nectar from those flowers. Huh.
