DD with red rash on face. Allergic to cats??

Hi all, occasionally DD will come out on red blotches on her face. They don’t bother her and seem to clear up within a few days. But It often seems to appear after we have visited my grandparents or my mums who both have cats (my mum has loads of bloody cats).

We visited last night and my mum has two new kittens. DD was picking them up and snuggling into them near her face.

Is it possible she’s allergic? I thought that generally cat allergies cause sneezing/ runny noses.

OH is also allergic to cats. He comes out in hives and sneezes non stop around them.

Can cat allergies cause a blotchy face?

Allergies are different for everyone.
My cat allergy is sneezy, runny eyed, itchy mess.
Other allergens cause me blotchy skin. Things like perfume or face cream.

Could be the cats. Could be something else.
