Okay, your cats are AWESOME! Especially Phaedra! I love the pic of her on the chair. We can learn a lot from cats, eh? No one can chill out like a cat.

When Will and I met, I already had a kitty, here name was Coco. We lost her three years ago to intenstial cancer. She was almost 15. I got her when she was just a little kitten, I rescued her from an abusive house and loved her dearly. It broke my heart when she died in my arms. I buried her in my garden and talk to her often.
After she died, the house was to empty so WIll and I first got Chloe. We bought her from a patient of mine at my office. A couple of months later, we decided she needed a playmate and got Big Boy!

Casey - I had to laugh when you said they sat with you in the bathroom. My cat, Suki, joins me in the bathroom daily. It's as if she knows that I am miserable and is there to comfort me!

I know I always post pics, but here are a couple more. Emeril takes the funniest pictures ever!! He has a hilarious personality, I laugh so much at him. Rocco is much more laid back.
Here's Emeril doing an Elvis impression (this is how he begs.....he puts his lip up and makes a growling noise)
This one cracks me up...
This is Rocco as a baby...
And Rocco now...
And finally - them together! 
They are a handfull...I don't know how I'll handle a baby with them!

I actually am allergic to cats and I still have one, thankfully my allergies aren't too severe but I just found the therapeutic effects of having a pet far outway the sucky effects of the allergies (I'm allergic to dogs too). I take a lot of allergy medication and get a lot of sinus infections...but the cat is such a blessing that it's worth it

Yep! 
I don't want kids so I names my cat Sara, that's what I would have named a little girl.
I adore my cat so much. I love her to death! She's so playful and loving. She comes when I call her and she is very loyal. When I'm not feeling well she can tell and curls up beside me hours on end. Like last night. I wasn't feeling well so she slept with me for 2 hours. It made me feel a buit better having her pur next to me!

I love my cat so much! I was always a dog person and didn't know if I would really get to love a cat, but I just love my little guy to death. I've had him for about a year and a half, and he's great. He's super affectionate, always comes to greet me when I come home and snuggles with me in bed, and when I'm not feeling well he can tell and tries to comfort me. We got him from a shelter, we chose him because he was a polydactyl (which means he has more fingers than the average cat) and I didn't know if anyone else would adopt him. Plus, when we opened the cage door to look at him he immediately wrapped both arms around my bf's neck and gave him a hug!
I also had a dog when I was living at my parent's house...a big, huge bull mastiff! I loved him to death...he was the sweetest dog you would ever meet, all 150lb of him He woudl actually lay down on the floor with you and wrap his big arms around you to hug you...and when my mom was sick with cancer and in the hospital, he stayed by the back door waiting for her to come home for two weeks. He passed away right before I left home, and I still miss him 
I'd love to post some pics but I can never figure it out...if someone wants to help me I'll post some pics!

I don't think there are any ways to make yourself not allergic to cats, but I have heard that allergy shots can be pretty effective in controlling the allergy, but you have to get them weekly as I recall.
For me, I just make sure we keep the apartment really clean, we've got a short-haired cat who we bath regularily (he doesn't really like that ), and we vacuum all the time to try and reduce the dander. I also bought these wipes at pet smart that are meant to "bath" the cat and reduce allergies...don't really know if they work but I figure they can't hurt.
Other than that, I think you just have to try it and see how it goes! I would definately go with a short-haired cat though so at least you'll have less hair to deal with
