Hi I just got a 12 year old senior cat a few days ago and the first 2 days the cat was in hiding and now the cat will not leave me alone. He keeps meowing and coming up to me wanting to be pet. I’m trying to clean and do office work and he’s not allowing me to do it and as much as I don’t want to I’m considering giving him back to the shelter because of this and I just realized that I’m a little bit allergic to him. I’m not sure what to do because I really like him and saddened to hear his past.

This is a tough situation. Regarding the allergies, you need to speak with your regular human doctor. Sometimes medications may help. Don't feel bad putting him in a room when you have tasks that need to get done. He won't be mad if he is put in the bath room for an hour. This behavior may calm down as well as he continues to adjust to his new home. If you don't want to give him back to the shelter, you may ask friends/family about adopting him. I hope this helps.
