Do Air Purifiers Really Help With Cat Allergies?

Cat allergies are a common problem, affecting millions of people worldwide. Symptoms of cat allergies can range from mild to severe and can include sneezing, runny nose, itchy eyes, and skin rashes. In some cases, cat allergies can even trigger asthma attacks.

Air purifiers are often touted as a way to reduce allergy symptoms, but do they really work? The answer is yes, air purifiers can be helpful for people with cat allergies, but their effectiveness will depend on a number of factors.

How Air Purifiers Work

Air purifiers work by removing airborne particles from the air. These particles can include dust, pollen, mold spores, and even viruses and bacteria. For cat allergy sufferers, the most important particles to remove are feline dander and saliva proteins.

Feline dander is made up of dead skin cells that are shed by cats. These skin cells are very small and can easily become airborne. Saliva proteins are also very small and can become airborne when cats lick themselves or groom other animals.
