When inhaled, they travel down the lung and settle there. With time, it can inflame the lung and scare the airways. Which can progress to chronic lung disease. For those allergic to the fur, symptoms such as coughing, wheezing and difficulty in breathing can present.

Yes, cat hair can potentially cause lung problems in some people. Cat hair and dander can trigger allergies, which can lead to asthma or other respiratory issues. Additionally, cats may carry allergens on their fur from other animals or plants, which can also cause lung problems. It is important to keep your home clean and free of cat hair and dander to help reduce the risk of developing lung problems.
