A member asked:
Every time i stroke my cats i get swollen, red, itchy eyes (sometimes is only one) am i allergic to cats? never had this problem before now.

It would seem so: You described allergic symptoms in response to a similar stimulus ( the cat). You have two choices, avoid cats or start using allergy medicine when you know you'll be around them.
