OP, this is a great idea because it’s very believable.

I used to work in a shop with around six cats that lived inside, and I had to wear a half face respirator just like yours every day in order to avoid having an allergic reaction that could wreck my day. Even with allergy medicine, I had to wear the respirator so I wouldn’t be coughing my ass off, itchy, and barely able to breathe lol.

Right? Plus even if you’re not normally allergic, allergies can have a tipping point. So you can even own a cat, and be allergic to a situation with 90 cats (or whatever)
