Exactly my point Rain, not everyone can be around animals.  My mother is asthmatic, other people I know have allergies, so whilst it might sound like a nice idea, you have to put your fellow human beings first and consider their medical ailments as well as what is an acceptable environment to be in.

Hopefully I will never have to be admitted to a home or hospice where there are animals...you might as well shoot me beforehand.

You have to remember also as I said above, "keeping them away from admin floors" is not the answer either.  Smells and hairs carry and are left behind.  Even to have an animal in the same building can be a health hazzard for others.  Health and safety has to be a priority where human beings are concerned.
