How to use cat in a sentence?

  1. Ujwala Kaza:

    Everyone is a bit different, so treatment has to be tailored to the individual, in general, if there are any factors that are found to be triggers, the first step is to avoid those triggers. For example, if that adorable adopted cat who makes you sneeze sleeps on your pillow most nights, it may be a good idea to convince her to sleep in a different room. If you have a chronic postnasal drip from an allergy to pollen or from a deviated septum, its important to treat those issues as well.
