Your Cat, Fel d 1, and You: What cat lovers should know
Whether you’re living with allergies or just curious about how Fel d 1 affects your household, being informed is the first step to a harmonious life with your furry friends.
WHAT IS FEL D 1?
Fel d 1 is a protein cats produce in their saliva, skin, and urine. When cats groom themselves, Fel d 1 spreads from their saliva to their fur, which is dispersed into the environment, causing a variety of negative health effects in the 20% of people who are sensitive to it.

About Fel d 1 Buildup
Over time, Fel d 1 accumulates in cat owners’ homes, leading to a highly allergenic environment. Fel d 1 particles are sticky and adhere to surfaces like carpets, furniture, and clothing.
Even after a cat has left an area, Fel d 1 can remain in an environment for months, continuing to trigger allergic reactions. One study found that Fel d 1 is so sticky, trace amounts can be found in up to 99% of homes– including ones where cats aren’t even present!
How to Manage Fel d 1 Buildup
For those sensitive to Fel d 1, managing it requires a multifaceted approach. Regular grooming reduces fur and dander, and bathing your cat, while not easy, also temporarily lowers allergen levels.
For a modern, science-backed approach, consider allergen neutralizing products that neutralize Fel d 1 on contact to prevent it from causing allergic reactions.
With consistent effort, you can significantly reduce Fel d 1’s impact live more comfortably with your cat.

how it works
Cats produce an allergen called Fel D1 in their saliva. This is what causes cat allergies.
Pacagen engineers proteins (called nanobodies) that can bind to and neutralize these allergens!
We put these nanobodies into sprays for easy use. Simply spray in the air and on surfaces every 2-3 days.
The result: up to 98% of allergens are neutralized, which means less sniffles and more cuddles!
How to use it
Find areas your cat frequents, such as the couch, the bedroom, or the litter box.
Spray areas generously and wait 10-15 minutes for the nanobodies to work their magic.
Repeat every 2-3 days based on symptoms, and enjoy your allergen-free life!
