Practical Guide to Feline Allergies

This Practical Guide to Feline Allergies is written by the MonVet Group team. It brings together the essentials to understand and better manage allergies in cats. You’ll find a clear structure, practical checkpoints, and a step-by-step care pathway to help you move forward confidently between visits.

What’s inside

  • Clinical cues: where itch shows up in cats and how to use an itch scale at home.
  • Types of allergies: insect-bite hypersensitivity (incl. fleas), contact allergy, atopy, and food allergy—often occurring together.
  • Feline eosinophilic granuloma complex: typical presentations to know about.
  • Diagnostic pathway: rule out infections and internal disease, run an elimination diet, then consider serum/intradermal testing for environmental triggers.
  • Elimination diets: hydrolyzed vs. novel proteins, home-prepared pros/cons, treats and re-challenges (provocations).
  • Management options: antihistamines, anti-inflammatories, immunosuppressants, immunotherapy, dermatologic nutrition, and over-the-counter skin care (omega-3s, shampoos, topicals).

Who is it for?

Cat owners facing recurrent itching, hair loss or skin lesions—and families who want a clear roadmap between appointments.
