Food That Gets Rid of Cat Allergies
By: Maddie Hollett
Researchers discovered the protein in cat food that causes allergies is called Fel d1. They discovered that if they change that protein in the food and use the antibody, human immune systems won’t recognize it. Researchers fed this antibody to cats for about 10 weeks and noticed the drop in active Fel d1 in cats hair by a lot. So then, they gathered a group of people who are allergic to cats and put them in a room with cats who had been on this antibody diet, and then regular cats. The people noticed there symptoms were reduced a lot such as nasal symptoms, itchy eyes after being with the antibody dieted cats. Purina has not started selling this food with the antibody, however they plan on it in the future to help with cat allergies at home.
Would you consider buying this food for your cat?
Do you think it works as well as they say?
Do you think when it sells it will become big?

I think buying this for my cat if i had one would be very useful because it would keep my cat from having allergies and it would keep me less worried.-Anadia Phillips
ReplyDeleteJust how cats are allergic to certain things maybe people are allergic to cats because they are allergic to the same thing that cats are eating and transforming in their bodies._tamara
ReplyDeleteI'm allergic to cats but I would love a pet cat, so I think I would be interested in this cat food. -lizzy raupp
ReplyDeleteI feel as if this food will harm cats in some way. Because of the fact that some people naturally are inherently allergic to cats, and develop the allergy, that doesn't mean we should change the make up or genes of the cat. This could impact future generations of cats. -Tori Favazza
ReplyDeletei Think this a such a good idea, i know so many people who love cats but have a major allergy i do understand what tori was saying, it might impact the future cats, but well see

ReplyDeleteI think a lot of people would buy this, the only problem I see with this is that it could be expensive. If its expensive then people might be less inclined to ok buy this product. However if it works and works really good then people might think it's worth it.
I would consider using this cat food if I had a cat. I don't see a problem with it as long as it does not harm the cat in a negative way. I know a lot of people that have super severe allergies to cats, and if this cat food works, than it could really make them less miserable around their cat.

DeleteI dont see a proble with this because it does not harm the cat at all and the cat doiesnt get hurt by it at all. As long as the cats are okay, then i am fine with it because there are noi problems - Jack O'Leary
ReplyDeleteI think that it will start small and just maybe just maybe it will grow over time

ReplyDeleteA lot of people will buy this cat food once it's for sale. It will help a lot of people who like cats but are allergic.
ReplyDeleteI think that it will become something that more people with allergies and cats will become interested in so they can enjoy their pets without their allergies. Lilly Pearson
