If You Have Asthma And Allergys To Feathers CAn You Still Get A Ferret Or A Cat?

Answer 1

YES!!! Use petal Cleanse. PetalCleanse™ is a solution that removes the allergens and dander from dog, cat and small animal fur that causes allergic reactions in people. Contrary to popular belief it is not the hair itself that causes the problem, so long haired breeds are no more likely to cause a reaction than short haired. Allergic reactions to cats, dogs or feathered pets is caused by the level of people's sensitivity to the allergen Fel D1, present in cats, and Can F1 in the dog, as well as the microscopic dander, saliva from pets grooming and urine, present in and on the pe'ts coat.

good luck, (my friend uses it!!) x

Answer 2

I have allergies and asthma myself and am the proud owner of 1 cat, 3 dogs, 2 horses, and 3 lizards. It all depends on how much you want/love animals and how much you wanna put up with as far as your allergies go.

I have had asthma attacks so bad I could barely breathe for nearly a week. But I wouldnt give up my pets for anything even if it meant the difference between life or death. So again its a personal thing, only you can decide if you can handle it. My suggestion would be go to your local human society and apply as a foster home, that way you can try it out if its too much, there isnt a long term commitment on your end, if you can handle it then you could always adopt the pet in your care or get another.

Answer 3

No, because ferret and cat feathers are the worst kind of feathers for a feather allergy.

You need an animal that doesn't have any feathers, like a ferret, or a cat.

Not a feathered ferret, or a feathered cat, ever.

Answer 4

different people are sensitive to different things. in a cat i am sensitive to something in their saliva that gets on their fur when they clean themselves so no cats for me but anything else is fine. there is really no way of telling what you are sensitive to in advance. if you have a friend with a cat or ferret go play with it for a while and make sure you are ok generally ok with it before you bring one in your home.

Answer 5

Do you have friends that have pets? If you do have you noticed how you feel after you've been around them? Otherwise go to your local shelter and walk around a bit......if that goes well pet a few and see.....take it slow. You may want to do this in a couple of visits to the shelter.
