Top 10 Cat Allergy Relief Steps for Immediate Relief


Cat allergy relief is not as easy to alleviate as it may seem. When most of us have allergies, we stay away from the things that cause the symptoms. Well, we love our cats and no way are we going to get rid of our cats to get relief from cat allergies! However, there are some things we can do to help alleviate the sneezing, watery eyes, lack of energy and other cat allergy symptoms. Let's take a look at 10 immediate steps we can take to improve our relationship with our feline friends.

1 - Kick your cats out of bed!

I know you love cuddling with them, but no more cats in the bed! Place pillows on your bed when you are not there to keep them off when you are gone.

2 - Improve your diet.

A diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruit and fiber leads to an improved histamine and immunity level. This is one step we all can easily take.

3 - Bar them from your bedroom altogether.

This is a tough one, but if your allergies are intense, this is a very simple move that will give you some much needed relief.

4 - Wash your linens twice a month.

If you are not going to use either of the bedroom tips above, at least wash your linens in 140 degree water twice a month to kill the cat allergens and dust mites cats carry.

5 - HEPA step 1

Get a HEPA (high efficiency particulate air) filter. These filters are made specifically for removing microscopic bacteria and allergens and provide IMMEDIATE relief from cat allergies.

6 - HEPA step 2

Purchase a HEPA vacuum cleaner. Just as above, this tool allows you to cleanse your floors and furniture, and gives dramatic and immediate relief from not only allergies, but other hidden nasties.

7 - Steam clean your home.

Steam cleaning your carpets frequently, as well as your furniture and drapes, kills mold spores and bacteria, and provides cat allergy relief by destroying cat dander and allergens.

8 - Relegate your cat to one room of your house.

This is tough if you have a small home or apartment, but it can be a great move after cleansing your home with the above steps.

9 - Clean your cat.

Yes, cats hate baths, but there are options. There are coat treatments for cat allergens, and microfiber cloths that are treated for relief from cat allergies.

10 - Use a natural, herbal cat allergy relief.

Natural allergy remedies are inexpensive, have no side effects, are easy to take in tablet form, and are a fraction of the cost of a Doctor. They also provide a huge bonus by improving overall respiratory and immune system health.

These are 10 ideas you can use to provide you and your loved ones immediate relief from cat allergies, and also improve the cleanliness, and therefore the health, of your home. For more information on these and other remedies, read on.
