Recently my brother visited from Germany and told me that CAT hair if
digested by a bumane being, especailly a female, is very bad for the
person. I adopted a male siamese cat couple of years ago. He is an
indoor cat. He sleeps on my bed at night and naturally there is a lot
of his cat hair everywhere.
Does anyone know any more information about this? Is cat hair really
dangerous for women? I had heard about this for new born babies but
nothing else.
thx.

I think if cat hair was dangerous, I'd be dead by now.

Here is a fact for you the human body inhales or eats almost a 1 lb. or more
of debris a day guess where it comes out of.
The only danger a healthy cat can pass on to a human is to a pregnant woman
and that is if she is handling the cat's feces. I forget the exact name of
it. Phil P. will be able to answer that or the person if the person is
allergic to cats give them a good case of the sneezes
And if it were true half the cat people would be dead right now think of
all the little old ladies and the cat hoarders they all would be sick now
YOU WOULD BE SICK RIGHT NOW you adopted the cat years ago.
