I'll comment here so someone else can win on your new post. I love Lady GaGa, too. Her songs are catchy and get stuck in my head all day.

It's too bad that you can't have cats; they are so sweet! Maybe you'll find some allergy meds that will allow you to have one someday. Some breeds are actually hypoallergenic so perhaps you could get one of those. :)
