Those allergies can be pretty miserable for sure. For some reason cat hair makes me break out in hives and sometimes even turn to blisters. If a package isn't marked my husband opens it first and vacuums whatever it is and sprays with Fabreze and then lets it air out before he brings it into the house. All's good then
