It's not the animal fur people are allergic to, actually. It's the dander, a protein present in the animal saliva. I should think that if, like me, you are allergic, you would know that. Of course, I have found that, after a lifetime of sharing my home with cats and dogs, I have more or less overcome my allergies (with the help of Flonase).
