Hello. what are the chances of developing cat allergies, if you have never had any cat allergies ? are cat allergy dangerous if you have it ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Allergy?: People can develop new allergies. The intensity of the allergy varies for each individual person. It is unlikely, but not impossible, to get a new cat allergy later in life. Usually, symptoms are mild. See an allergist for testing to determine for sure.
