How to make your home and cat allergy-friendly for allergic guests?

Question

My friend is allergic to my cat. I’d love for her to be able to come over to my house more often, and getting rid of Skunk is definitely not an option. Are there any ways to make my house or cat more allergy-friendly? Could brushing him more often help? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 5 years and 9 months old

Brushing more often (in an area that's easy to clean up any hair that flies away) can certainly help. Keeping carpets and furniture clean can also help reduce pet dander and allergens. If you do a search online, there are also special shampoo sprays that can be used on cats to help reduce excess dander without harm to your cat. Having an antihistamine on hand for your friend to use, and keeping bedding/cat towers/etc out of common areas your friend will frequent may also help.
