Hi everyone,

I have MCAS - which has been flaring up a lot for the past year.

Does anyone have any experience with cats or dogs?

Are you much worse when the cat or dog isn’t hypoallergenic?

I’m okay with my parent’s hypoallergenic cockerpoo! But my mother in law has just bought a cat (not hypoallergenic) and I’m worried about visiting (when restrictions allow me to do so).

Thank you

Cats do cause flare up for me. Rashes, wheezing, red swollen eyes, and general fatigue.
