Product Information

However, if your allergies are particularly severe, it may be worth visiting your doctor who can prescribe you with something a little more substantial. Cat’s are extraordinary animals, and they have a lot of love to give to their owners, despite their reputation for being independent, many of these animals love nothing more than snuggling up to their human for some TLC. But for people with allergies, this isn’t always possible. Although it's widely believed that allergic responses stem from a reaction to an animal's hair or fur, it's actually a powerful allergen - Fel d1 in cats and Can d1 in dogs - that causes the problems. Pet allergy is the second most common allergy in Britain, after house dust mites. It’s sometimes assumed that it is your pet’s fur that causes the reaction, but that isn’t the case. The allergen, or allergy-producing substance, is actually a protein called Fel d 1, which is found in cats’ sebaceous glands. If you suffer from allergies relating to your cat, it can be a sage idea to remove your carpets and go for a hard floor option.

Free of: Allate chemicals, Carba mix chemicals, chemical Chlorocresol, Cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB), Latex, Spandex, Thiurams and other harsh chemicals These cleaning machines are specifically aimed at removing the tiny particles found in homes that have pets that are responsible for causing allergies. They usually feature a much more powerful rotating brush that will lift away any dander with ease. Furthermore, removing these products can eliminate any smells associated with keeping an animal. Prevention is better than cure – or so they say, but in this case, there couldn’t be a more fitting saying. If there was a way to remove any allergens from your pet before they are airborne, would you do it? The most obvious answer is yes, and this is a perfectly viable option with Petal Cleanse. Having a pet in the home is something that many people take for granted, but if you have an animal allergy, it can mean that your chances of living in harmony with a furry friend are dramatically reduced.Free of: enzymes, fragrance, harmful optical brighteners, ethoxylated surfactants contaminated with cancer-causing chemicals, parables, SLES/SLS If you have had your pet for a while and have allowed it to have access to every room in the house, you should be prepared for a few weeks of intense cleaning to get rid of the residual pet dander in the places you are banning your kitty from entering. After a few weeks, we had to tell the Cats Protection team that we would have to rehome them, which was heartbreaking. They were very understanding and told me that they had found another lovely home for them, but I was so disappointed I couldn’t have cats in my life! This is why it is essential that you stay on top of changing and cleaning the litter box as and when your cat uses it. Within three days, my eyes and nose started running and I developed sinusitis,” she says. “It was like having a permanent cold and I was in a lot of pain. Whenever the kittens climbed on to my lap, my skin began to tingle too. Both my husband and I adored them but I started feeling so poorly we didn’t know what to do for the best. I took anti-histamines which helped a bit, as did wiping them down, hoovering every day, and cleaning the house from top to bottom, but I could never really cuddle or play with them as I longed to do. It didn’t seem fair on them to have to be lifted off my lap when they jumped up.

It is sometimes suggested that choosing a particular breed of cat will lessen the likelihood of an allergy, but both Allergy UK and Cats Protection say that as far as is known there are no truly non-allergenic cat breeds. Some individual cats seem to produce less of the Fel d 1 protein but it’s not really possible to predict which ones. Female cats are supposed to produce less of the protein than males, and neutered males less than entire tom-cats — but nothing is guaranteed. Clean the cat box as soon as possible after the cat has used it. Cat allergen is found in urine and is left in the litter box when your cat makes a deposit. To help prevent allergic reactions to the litter box, use a brand of litter that is less dusty and clumps well, and have someone in the household who is not allergic clean the box ( I love this one). Finally, there is the option of immunotherapy which exposes you to the allergen in a controlled, medical environment through drops, injections, or tablets. The concept is based around the idea that regular exposure to something that causes an allergic reaction will allow the immune system to become more tolerant. Similarly to the previous option, this treatment usually requires you to attend a private clinic, although in some extreme cases, it may necessary to seek medical advice But don’t throw away the idea entirely just yet – there are some ways that people who suffer from pet allergies can and do live alongside their kitty with ease. Whether you live with someone who has a pet cat or whether you can no longer resist living without a feline friend of your own, our guide on how to live with a cat if you’re allergic will provide you with some excellent tips.Marian, from Essex, has a much-loved cat she adopted several years ago in spite of her allergies. “I have to remember to wash my hands after I’ve stroked her,” she says. “If I forget, my face comes out in blotches and my eyes sting. As allergies go, though, it could be worse — I have a very severe reaction to bell peppers, for example! With Gem, when my reaction was at its worst, I used to wheeze a lot, but that improved after I stopped her sleeping on my pillow.

SaltWorks Bokek® Premium Dead Sea Salt is the only Optically Clean® Dead Sea salt available anywhere. This exclusive process uses jets of air to gently remove only the insoluble crystals that are typically contained in Dead Sea salt. This makes Bokek Premium the cleanest, most natural unrefined Dead Sea salt on the market. As a person who is allergic to cats, you’ll likely have made the rookie mistake of touching the cat and then touching your eyes – you’ll know that this isn’t a pleasant experience. However, thoroughly washing your hands after petting your kitty will remove any allergens and prevent any accidental transfer to the eyes and nose. You may also consider donning a pair of gloves when you do this to avoid getting any allergens on your hands.

How you can help

Lidé, kteří trpí kontaktními alergiemi, mohou být se psem v přímém kontaktu ihned, co jej někdo jiný ošetřil první dávkou přípravku. Lidé reagující na vzdušné alergeny musejí počkat na snížení kontaminace ve vzduchu 2 až 3 týdny. Ošetřujete-li zvíře tímto způsobem kvůli příbuznému nebo známému, který vás pravidelně navštěvuje, měli byste tedy přípravek začít aplikovat nejlépe 3 týdny před jeho návštěvou. I would have to go and spend some hours with it before thinking about adopting, to see what sort of reaction I had. I would hate to be disappointed again! My doctor says the medication I’m on might be building up my resistance, so I’m hoping that the right cat for me could be out there somewhere.”
