My husband is having a slight reaction to our new kitten...he is getting hives on a very localized section of his neck. Same spot each time. We got a Siberian kitten, which is supposed to have less of the protein in their dander that causes allergies, so I was hoping my husband would be 100% OK. I am also hoping he will eventually become "used to" the dander and not have a reaction with time.
Anyways...I am trying to alleviate his symptoms for now and came across this lotion:

Does anyone know if these type of things work? In speaking with the woman I got the cat from, she told me that once he is 8 months old and the oils in his skin develop I should not wash him at all, since it is the oil that actually helps with allergies. He is only 3 months now though....so I feel bad that my hubby may have to suffer for 5+ months!! Any other suggestions to help him out?? THANKS!
