How to ease my cat's allergies and stop her coughing fits at home?

Question

I believe my cat is having Allergies. After we moved from our home town she started having coughing fits occasionally. It's not enough to harm her I don't believe. Another cat of mine, who came from the same home town, has this issue as well. We took him to the vet for a possible UTI and the vet said it was apparently allergy induced because his bladder was not full and appeared to be fine. (I assume he was stressed out). Is there any way I can help my cat ease her allergies at home? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | 10 lbs

Hello, sorry to hear about your kittens. Allergies in your cat can be managed with medications and environmental modifications. Do not use any aerosolized sprays, candles, or fragrances because this can exacerbate the coughing. Clean often to limit the amount of dust around the house. Sometimes you may have to use litter that clumps and has less sand in it. Dry food may need to be moistened with water so that the food dust does not cause irritation. Hope this helps and best of luck.
