![]() ![]() ![]() You can get wipes (Tesco have them, or Boots or P@H & lots of others) I think they're called PetalWipes, and you go over the cats with them and they remove a lot of the 'dander' (spit/skin cells etc) which produce the allergic reaction. Might be worth a try - sounds as though he has a pretty bad allergy. Other than that - lots of vacuuming for your OH (well you can't do it, can you?) and maybe Piriton or similar for your visitor. Good luck - if you use the wipes let us know how you get on. ![]() |

BM, I have the same problem with my S-I-L....everytime he visits his eyes go red and sore and he continually sneezes. He takes antihistimins from the doc but they don't help at all ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

.....found this link http://www.petplanet.co.uk/product.a...132&pf_id=5234 Can't find the Petalwipes link - maybe they've stopped making them. I have seen them at Tesco. I'll go google again ![]() |

Try and keep him in a room that has minimal soft furnishings. I have a friend with a VERY allergic husband and we sit in the basement that has wooden floors, wooden shutters and dining chairs with rush matting seats. Needless to say the room is cleaned top to bottom prior to any visit. Although it doesn't remove the problem completely it goes a long way towards helping!! |

I didnt realise until too late that my son, Sean, has an allergy towards cats. Although it is not so bad that I will get rid of the cats! He has piriton occassionally. Its the soft furnishings that affect him the most - have a couple of faux fur throws that the cats love so i have to wash them a lot. Also lots of hoovering and dusting. Think the wipes are ok. But cant be used just once, as the dander etc will have all fallen off and gone on carpets, sofas, chairs, sides etc. They ok if you use them regularly. |
