So one of my kids is highly allergic to cats, but really wants a pet cat. I thought a good solution would be to get a cat girl. My wife is not totally thrilled by the idea, but I'm sure I could convince her. What are your thoughts?

Edit: ok it seems like we've got a lot of haters in the comments. If any actual cat girls want to weigh in...

Just in case this isn't a bit: OP, the structure in English should be "adjective noun." The opposite to most romantic languages where you say the noun then the description word. So a cat girl is a girl (assumed human) that can be described as a cat (has the traits of a cat). A girl cat is more reasonably a cat that is a girl, though you'd probably say "female cat" more often. For allergies you'd want to look into hypoallergenic cats like the hairless sphynx.

I'm aware of how the English language is structured, thank you.

I don't think OP is under the delusion that female cats are more hypoallergenic, but you should probably google cat girl.

You should definitely google cat girl

They were being kind and assuming there was a miscommunication.
