My roomate and I got two kittens two Sundays ago. The first week i was fine and then we went away for the weekend. When we came back Sunday, my allergies exploded.
My doctor told me in the past I have allergy induced asthma. I had a very severe allergic reaction to one cat in my past. I would start wheezing within minutes of being in contact with the cat. Give it enough time and my throat would close up.
We spent an hour with the kittens before buying them and I was perfectly fine. Last week I got a stuffy nose and a cough, but I figured I was just getting a cold. Well when we came back Sunday night, my stuffy nose became really bad and i started wheezing badly.
Monday we went out and I bought clariton D 24 hour (as recommended on this site) and an asthma inhaler. This week I got sick and my wheezing hasn't been so so.
We're getting ready to get rid of the kittens. Are there any other options? Does allerpet work? We'd love to keep them, but if i don't get better it won't be an option.
