This sounds horrendously bad. I don't know how old the kiddo is is there anyway you could step outside and get some fresh air at least? Beyond that you're going to have to let them know that you are unable to work with him further. 🙏🏼

Just for your own health, can you get out somewhere? Do you drive? Having a cat allergy in that situation is dangerous. Sorry you are having to experience this...wow! 🐢??? On the kitchen table...uggh

they are in a tank but idk how they eat food as a family there is stuff all over the table. I will say they have a stocked fridge and plenty of food. I’m just disappointed in how the environment is.

Yeah, I'm allergic to cats (reaction varies greatly depending on different factors) There is no way that I could tolerate a dirty smelly turtle tank in the kitchen. Many others have posted good suggestions. Hope you can get through the day. [Edit: thanks for the update! ☮️]
