Hey! He could have herpes virus in cats. Not transmissible to humans. I made an entire YouTube video on this you can watch. I think you should bring him to your local veterinarian to get looked at. They may want to do other things like chest x-rays to make sure lungs and heart is ok and possibly bloodwork. I hope this helps!

Hey! Yes you can give him Benadryl. 1 mg per lb of body weight up to 2x a day. (Dont sorry Benadryl does not make dogs as tired as people). You can also give your dog a bath with Zymox shampoo if you have any or if any pet stores are open you can buy it over the counter. I am sorry to hear the dermatitis is so bad! You may want to get a sedative pain medication such as Gabapentin to help him get through this severe itchy phase while the atopica kicks in. I hope this helps! Dr. Lindsay Butzer

Hey! Apoquel is expensive, I understand that. But it works great. If your pet is having allergies only once in a while you can use short course of steroids to help flare ups. But steroids should only be taken for 5 days. And not a life long treatment option. I hope this helped!
