Pet Health Problems
Cats and dogs have lungs that are even more sensitive to
environmental contamination than our lungs. Dog health problems
and cat health problems may be a warning to us that indoor
air pollution has become an issue even among our pets, since
many of these 'family members' are indoors for many hours every day.
A Jack Russell terrier suddenly developed an acute bout of vomiting and diarrhea.
When the owner took the dog to the vet, she noticed while outside that
her pet seemed to be feeling better. After examination,
the vet's diagnosis was that the dog is allergic to scents!
It turned out that the owner had just started using a new
body spray! Needless to say she quickly
stopped wearing her new fragrance!
Perhaps common dog health problems are more related to air quality than we realize!
This dog's health problem was diagnosed by a professional
to be related to air pollution!
Your indoor air quality may be compromised by 'air fresheners', scented candles,
perfumes, laundry detergents, fabric softeners, household
cleaning products, soaps, skincare lotions, hair gels and
sprays, building and renovation materials, carpets, and new upholstery.
As harmful as these indoor air pollutants are for us, they are even more so for our pets!
We highly recommend reducing these irritants as much
as possible for all people and pets living in your home.
Since cats are apparently prone to asthma, it might be helpful for
yourself and your family members (including your cat)
to use natural, dust free pet litter.

"The two AllerAir air purifiers I bought from you were a lifesaver. I had just
moved into a place that had been freshly painted and recarpeted and the off gassing was destroying
my respiratory system and health.
"When the units arrived, I cranked them up, and I remember going to bed that night breathing
the freshest air you can imagine, right in my freshly painted / carpeted bedroom.
"You have a great product. My eyes thank you, my nostrils thank you, my lungs thank you,
my throat thanks you!!!!"
