Pet Allergies

Unfortunately, those cute little creatures called pets we easily fall in love with can make us experience allergic reactions. The reactions usually occur after coming into contact with the animal’s dander, urine or saliva. It is feathered or furry animals such as cats, dogs, birds, and rodents that cause allergy symptoms.
