Pet dander is one of the most common triggers for year-round nasal and respiratory symptoms, and cats and dogs are the usual sources. A cat and dog allergy test measures specific IgE antibodies in the blood to determine whether the immune system reacts to proteins found in feline or canine dander, saliva, and urine.

About Cat & Dog Allergy Test: Pet Allergy Testing in Fallbrook

This blood test identifies sensitization to cat and dog allergens by detecting antibody responses to specific proteins.

The test analyzes a small blood sample for immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies that target cat and dog allergens, including the major cat protein Fel d 1 and the major dog proteins Can f 1 through Can f 6. Elevated specific IgE indicates that the immune system has been sensitized to these substances.

Sensitization does not always produce symptoms, and symptom severity can vary widely. Results are typically reported as numerical values or classes that reflect the likelihood and degree of allergic response. A clinician interprets these findings alongside a person's history and physical examination.

Distinguishing cat from dog allergy matters for management. Avoidance strategies, environmental controls, and medical treatment options differ depending on which animal triggers the response. Testing both allergens in a single panel provides a clearer picture when exposure to either animal is possible.
