Introduction

Air is the basis for life for all living beings, be it humans, animals or plants and hence the need for it to be conserved should be prioritized by us. The recent times with technology advancements, the amount of stress and isolation has rapidly increased and hence the need for companions is on a rise, as a result, the population of pet owners amongst the present generations has not only increased but is multiplied twice/thrice of the amount it existed before. The need for living beings for warmth and companionship is very well restored by bringing in pets into homes, making them a part of the family is what teaches us humanity, compassion and other life lessons which we could never have the opportunity to learn if it were not for our pets. But, like the double-entry system which our financial accounts very well teach us, there are always duel effects of everything we do. Where on one side our pets bring happiness, companionship and love in our lives they also bring in the dangers of air pollution increase, the pet dander (refers to the tiny particles of skin shed by cats, dogs, birds, rodents and other animals in form of fur or feathers.) they bring into our houses are accounted for to be one of the sources of air pollution indoors. The need for a fur-partner is significant in all lives, and hence the only solution for to keep clean the air and happiness in our lives is to install air purifiers in every home, office or any other indoor setting where exists our furry friend!

Dangers caused by Pet Dander

Pet dander is a common form of source for all kinds of dangers recorded accountable for indoor air pollution. Pet dander includes the shed of skin in form of fur or feathers by pets like rodents, cats, dogs, birds, and other animals, which holds Fel d I protein from cats and the Can f I and Can f II proteins from dogs. The animals’ saliva can contribute to airborne diseases and can cause problems for everyone especially the asthma patients and people allergic to pets. The common difficulties complained about by pet owners are- difficulty in breathing, chest tightening or chest pains, audible whistling or wheezing while exhaling, troubled sleep routines caused by shortness of breath, coughing or wheezing. The hindrances in smooth functioning of lungs and the other elements of the respiratory system of a human being are majorly influenced by the pet dander present in the air we breathe in, the need to purify this air is more of a necessity and a question of survival more than anything and the only answer is to bring in air purifiers in all indoor areas.

Pet allergens: It’s occurrence and effects

Pet allergens (synonym for pet dander) are lightweight and small particles suspended in the air. They tend to stick around for a longer period when compared to allergens dangled by cockroaches or dust mites. The microscopic size and spiky shape enable the pet allergens to stick to furniture, beddings, fabrics and other indoor items present and carried in/out. Pet dander is very easily transported from one place to another, from home to offices, gyms, schools, and hospitals. The transportation doesn’t require the other places to have pets or animals, it can easily stick to clothes and/or any other thing carried in/ out of home and can cause dangers through air pollution at places which you least expect it. The effects of pet allergens commonly include accelerated or triggered asthma, which depicts symptoms of short breathing and other respiratory symptoms and can lead to a decline in the ability of the lungs to function. Congestion, sneezing, runny nose, chest tightness, wheezing, itching, watery eyes, rashes, and eczema, are some other common complaints from pet owners and the ones affected.
