Cats produce the most allergenic substance known to man. Some people think they are allergic to cats, but it is actually the dried saliva on the cat's fur that people are allergic to. When cats groom themselves, an invisible layer of their saliva remains on their fur. This dried saliva is a proteinaceous substance that reacts strongly with the human immune system, causing severe allergic reactions. So a person is not allergic to a cat, just it's saliva.
The "Solution" to this problem is a solution of acetylpromazine and water. One ten milligram tablet of ace mixed with one ounce of water is the solution. Putting six drops of this remedy on a cat's food daily causes subtle changes in the character of the saliva to occur. This change in the saliva makes a cat less allergenic to it's owner. The change is an improvement, but it is an effect, and not a one hundred percent cure. So a person mildly allergic to cats will see good results with this solution.
