This was on a pro author's blog. She responded reasonably when I commented, but pretty much all of the comments were very much about how wrong it was for anyone to buy/rent a place that wasn't accessible.

I also pointed out that, as someone with a severe cat allergy that causes asthma attacks that I can't treat because they stopped making the medication I could use, I have a lot of friends and relatives I can't visit. They've all chosen something completely optional that cuts off my access.

I have never told someone that they shouldn't get a cat or that they should get rid of those they have. That isn't just because I recognize that cats are part of the family. Getting/keeping a cat is something that is good for not-me people. Unless we're sharing living space, my needs aren't the priority.

I can and do, however, ask that people find a way to be wearing clothes that haven't been exposed to cats before they hug me or sit on my upholstered furniture.
