I've heard that a lot of people are allergic to cats. What are some of the symptoms and what can I do?

Some common symptoms of cat allergy include itching, hives, swelling, difficulty breathing, and asthma-like symptoms. To reduce your risk of developing an allergic reaction, avoid contact with cats and their dander, which is the material that causes allergies. You should also clean your home regularly and use air conditioning or central heating to keep indoor air circulating. If you have already developed an allergic reaction, seek medical help immediately.
