Also make sure you equip your vacuum with a Hepa filter and vacuum your home often
(even if you have hardwood floors it's best to vacuum, so Fd1 is trapped in the bag and filter). If possible, get someone who isn't allergic to bath and brush your cat. We all love a wet kiss from our feline friends, but remember that allergies are a direct result of proteins found in your cats: saliva, sweat and urine -- not their fur (fur will contain allergens from your cat cleaning itself and through sweat glands).
