Hi Patricia,

Boy, that is a ton of allergies for your poor kitty to deal with. One thing I know to help her out would be not to feed and water her out of plastic dishes, but use glass or metal instead, and wash her dishes daily.

I will move this thread to our Health Forum where hopefully someone can help you out.

I would start by trying one of the IVD diets, I dont have the lists at home, but I am almost sure that there's a food that will work. The second thing you can try is to talk to the Dr about Zyrtek. It's a human allergy medication that's now being used in pets.
It is also possible to do the shots to desensatize her. Depending on how she would react to a pill once a day VS injections every day.
