Third-Party Tested 100% Natural Remedies for Allergies in Cats

Just like people, cats can have allergies to many different things including common allergens found in the environment.

Allergens That Cause a Reaction in Cats

  • Pollen and grass
  • Plants and mold
  • Dust Mites
  • Household cleaners
  • Carpet fibers and carpet deodorizers
  • Insecticides
  • Cigarette smoke
  • Food

When your kitty ingests, inhales, or even comes into direct contact with these allergens, the immune system produces a protein that binds to the skin which then activates the body’s defense system triggering the release of chemicals such as histamines.

By including NHV’s natural remedies for allergies in cats, you can help promote healthy immune activity and histamine response. Read Holly's Story and how NHV products helped her with her allergies.

Cats can also develop an allergic reaction that leads to other health problems such as allergic bronchitis and allergic asthma. There are also food and skin allergies that can occur in your kitty.
