There are those who don’t not take a kitten because they don’t like the animal. They want a cat in vain, but because of the allergies they cause, they can’t get alongside each other.
Of course, someone who sneezes when a cat is nearby is not allergic to the cat and not even to the cat’s hair. Although it is called a mask hair allergy, it is actually proteins found on the cat’s skin that trigger allergic symptoms. These proteins trigger a process in the body of susceptible people that causes sneezing, coughing, runny nose, difficulty breathing.
So they are not allergic to the cat, not to the fur, but to the protein found in the dead epithelial cells, saliva, urine of the animal's skin. It is a false alarm for the body to these harmless proteins that the body produces even when it has to deal with bacteria and viruses.
