Though there is relief, and it is easier then you might think. I know from personal experience what is like to have to endure allergies from our furry little friends. I suffer from Asthma and was rushed to the ER when we brought our kitten home. My doctor advised me to get rid of him immediately. But I couldnt. My daughter fell in love with him and I was afraid of what might happen to him if I did send him a way. So I surfed the web to find anything that could help me. Needless to say I was shocked to see how many sites suggested to get rid of the kitten or how many of them told me to buy all this equipment. Well, I not only found an easier way, but an effective way to keep your cat and to save yourself from undergoing anymore allergic reactions. Some simple steps to start with are; Bathe the cat as soon as you get him/her. If they are kittens this will not be so bad. But if they are adults and not declawed dont fret there are wipes you can use. This way you dont have to submerge them. They come with calming chamomile fragrance. It seems to help my cat. Bathe them twice a week for starters. (You will notice when you wont have to bathe them so often). Keep your house clean. Sounds obvious right? Though you will be surprised what you might not think about cleaning. Like your countertops. Wipe them down with disinfecting wipes every time you prepare food. (cat hair doesnt go well with any meal) Wipe around their food and water dishes. This will eliminate the saliva which many people are allergic to. Also wash your bed sheets as often as possible although you might not allow the cat in your room hair can still transfer on to the bed. Limit them certain areas of the home. As I mentioned earlier keeping them out of your bedroom. Also keep your fresh linens in a room you will keep your cat out of, this includes towels and washcloths. And one last simple step. Change your cats litter to pine! Trust me this helps more then you might think! Take into consideration that when youre cleaning the clay litter the dust that is lifting into the air has cat urine in it, even though it is clumped up it was still mixed in with the lifting fumes, which you are breathing. Gross when you stop and think about it. Pine there is no fumes; it absorbs into the pine and breaks up. These simple steps will really help and you didnt have to buy anything that cost more than ten dollars. Try these four basic steps with the aid of some over the counter allergy meds and you will notice a huge difference.
