What are Environmental Allergies in Cats?
As the name suggests, environmental allergies are caused by foreign substances in our surroundings. This can be pollens, mold, grass, fleas, other pets, and dust mites. Allergic reactions can be triggered by ingesting these allergens or being in physical contact with them. Even though cat environmental allergies are usually seasonal, the symptoms can last all year.
Common Symptoms of Cats with Allergies
- Sneezing, hacking, and difficulty breathing
- Irritated, watery eyes
- Ear infections
- Throwing up and stomach upset
- Inflamed, sensitive paws:
- Excessive grooming and licking
- Irritated or dry skin

If you notice these symptoms, please visit a vet for a body check and allergy test.
