Pet Allergies

Pet allergies are one of the most common causes for the onset of asthma, so it doesn't make sense that exposing babies to cats will prevent asthma from occurring in them. Researchers have studied the effects of having cats living with babies who have a predisposition for becoming asthmatic. Their findings involving the prevention of asthma follow the same theory about pet allergies and forming an immunity to them by consistently subjecting babies to cats. They found that those children were less likely to develop asthma as they matured. There is an exception where that theory won't tend to work and that is in babies whose mothers have an allergic reaction to cats. Those children are three times more inclined to becoming afflicted with asthma
