At what age do symptoms of a cat allergy usually manifest? i have one cat and am pregnant, and want to be prepared in case the baby is allergic.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Infancy: Avoidance is one important measure. Wash hands, do not have contact with the litter box, and keep surfaces clean. Infants often develop eczema as an early manifestation of allergic disease.
