How Your Home Might Be A Factor to Your Cat Dander Problem
I hear about cat dander problems all the time and it’s really a big deal if you love cats. If you’re one of the unfortunate pet owners who are sensitive to cat dander, then great news, you may not have to give away your pet.
Cat dander are very tiny pieces of cat skin shed by your pet and propagated all over your home. If you are allergic to them, here are some ways to minimise the problem:
1) Don’t let your pet into the bedroom or onto the bed. I know this is difficult especially for those who share the bed with the cat, but the close proximity of your body to the bedsheet and pillow means that you’ll be inhaling cat dander whenever you lie on the bed. Try to train your feline friend to know that your bedroom is out of bounds and you should see some improvement.
Also clean your bedsheets, pillow cases and blankets with hot water as much as possible.
2) Does your home have carpets? You might want to throw them out as cat dander cling on to them and bacteria breeds easily there. If that isn’t an option, vacuum your carpets whenever possible.
3) Do you have fabric sofas too? The cloth of the sofa is really conducive for cat dander. Change them with leather sofa sets or wash the fabric as often as possible.
4) Next you need to examine your curtains. If you’re using the heavy fabric ones, cat dander might stick to them easily. You might want to consider curtains of another material or alternatives like blinds.
5) As cat dander spread by the air due to their small size, you have to consider cleaning the air too. It would be a great idea to purchase a good air purifier.
These five simple tips are a good start though by no way are they the only solutions. More cat dander advice can be found at CatDandruffAway.com
