Cat allergies, hoping someone can help me and give me advice and suggestions..at a loss

I got a new cat for xmas. She’s special. We’re already bffs, she loves me so much already. We’re important to each other. I don’t think I’d ever find another like her, and I wouldn’t want to. She’s one of a kind. I’ve never been loved like I’ve been loved by her. She’s 5m old and both of us have had some pretty bad lives already. She nearly died from a traumatic past and no one would help her except for one place (something I can relate to in my own way). Now she has me, a girl who loves her so much, and always will. A girl who will keep fighting for her until it’s too late.

But I’m at a loss. My mom, who got me the cat, is allergic. I can’t move out, if I could I would. I love my mom, but I also love my cat. I don’t want my mom to suffer, but then the cat and I come into question as well. The cat has been the only major thing making me happy and feel like living a little more. She’s been my light, and I haven’t even had her that long yet.

The cat is also keeping me company, because my bf is deployed as an infantry man and I have no friends or family. I have problems with my father, and her being there gives me a reason to stay at my moms more. I’d love to give the cat the best life possible. I’ve already bought her so many things, spoiling her.

We’ve cleaned all around. My mom took a pill. Idk what else to do. The cat sleeps with her and her bf in their bed because I have sugar gliders and turtles in my room. We don’t want her getting my sugar gliders or messing with the tank. My mom doesn’t want to restrict her just to my room, and I don’t either. She worries the cat will tear things up if she’s allowed to roam when no ones around, and she gets scared alone. When my mom and her bf are gone, she stays in their room and has her litter in their bathroom. She stays there until I wake up and care for her and do everything I can with her. She also has another box downstairs in a smaller bathroom off of the living room. She’s on the couch sometimes, but she’s on blankets or on someone’s lap, but she has made her way off of us and the blankets at times. Her food is near the end of the kitchen. I have a brush, I can try brushing her more. I have a harness and leash because she’s forced to be an indoor cat or they can charge us with animal neglect/cruelty if we let her out. I can try walking her and getting her out the house for a while if she’ll cooperate. Some things say we can bathe her and try wipes. I’m not sure, but I’m willing to try anything at this point. I can’t imagine losing her. It’s breaking me. I’ve gotten so upset that it’s made me physically sick. I can’t imagine someone loving her quite like I do, do all of the things I do. I don’t want to put her through giving her a loving home back to the store for someone else to have. She clings to me and always looks for me. It truly breaks my heart to even think about her leaving. I need help, advice, and suggestions.
