Can animals be allergic to humans?

Yes, they can. Scientist's don't know much about allergies with wild animals but it has been known that dogs and cats develop allergies to their owners. Like when humans are allergic to animals, the main culprit is the dander or dandruff that falls of us. Around us everyday there's dust that contains varying amounts of dead skin. When cats are allergic they show symptoms such as coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath. Dogs show symptoms such as itching, sores and skin infections. This problem is increasing a lot because we are steadily domesticating our pets where they are continuously exposed to human allergens.
