YES!!! You know, I grew up owning cats and we also kept 2 horses boarded a few miles from our house. I rode Western and did a lot of trail riding as a kid/teen. I met my AH while in college so pets were a bit in my past. My AH is severely allergic to horses and cats, and to my mom's farm. He never comes to visit my mom with me, not in about 15 years anyway. Isn't it weird that I married someone who is deathly allergic to the 2 animals that shaped my pet-hood life? So strange. I was a country girl to some degree, grew up working in the garden, taking care of the pool, tending to the animals, walking in the woods, etc. I married a city dweller. My AH grew up in a row home in Baltimore. They had a patch of 5x5 grass in the front yard. If he hadn't worked for a landscaping company as a teen, he probably wouldn't have known how to use a mower(they used a push mower at his house), LOL!
