About the Cat & Dog Allergy Test: Pet Allergy Testing
The Cat & Dog Allergy Test measures immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies against cat and dog dander, the skin and salivary proteins that make up pet allergens. Pet allergy is common and can cause sneezing, a runny nose, itchy eyes, coughing, or skin reactions. This panel tests both animals so you can see whether one or both may be contributing to your symptoms. Results are interpreted with your history and the environments where you spend time.
What this test measures
- Cat Dander-specific IgE Measures IgE antibodies that react to cat dander and salivary proteins.
- Dog Dander-specific IgE Measures IgE antibodies that react to dog dander and salivary proteins.
Who this test may be right for
- People with sneezing, a runny nose, or itchy eyes when near cats or dogs.
- Individuals whose provider suspects a pet-dander allergy.
- People who develop hives or skin irritation after handling cats or dogs.
- Anyone with known animal allergies who wants to check cat and dog sensitivity specifically.
- Household members evaluating symptoms in a home with pets.
Before your visit
- No fasting is required.
- Continue your usual medications unless a healthcare provider advises otherwise.
- Pause antihistamines before testing only if your provider instructs you to, as they may affect some allergy results.
- Note when and where your symptoms occur, especially around the animals or their bedding.
Understanding your results
The report shows separate IgE levels for cat dander and dog dander. A higher level may suggest sensitisation to that animal, while a low or undetectable level makes allergy less likely. Sensitisation to animal proteins does not always cause symptoms, and reactions can involve multiple sources. The results can help your provider understand whether cat, dog, or both may be relevant. Discuss any positive or unexpected result with a healthcare provider before making decisions about pets or your home.
