Information About Allergies Cat
Allergies to cats, is really an allergy to the cat dander. What is cat dander? Cat dander is dried saliva which is released into the air when the cat moves around, you pet or brush the cat.

We all know how clean kitties like to be, so they lick their fur fairly often. Once the saliva dries, it forms a dust which is an allergen. This dust is so small that it stays in the air for a long time, giving us more time to breathe it in.

An air filter will help to reduce the dander in the air. You may also want to consider removing carpets and using a damp mop to clean the floors, or use a vacuum with a hepa filter. You should restrict access to certain rooms, such as the bedroom.

One item to note is that the shorter the cat hair, the less surface area there is for saliva to be deposited. So if you are allergic and still want a cat, a short-hair would be better than a long-hair.

Monthly baths can also help reduce cat dander.
