However, if you use those air freshener things that spritz or diffuse chemical fragrances, you might want to consider removing them. Sometimes they can cause respiratory illness or allergy type symptoms (in cats and people). I've seen this happen before, and the lady spent a fortune taking the cats to the vet before we figured out it was the air freshener things. Once removed, the cats were fine. The spray in a can type can do the same. Better to use something natural, as well as use pet friendly cleaning products without strong chemical odors.

They are pretty close to the ground where there is a lot of dust, carpet fibers etc. that can tickle their noses =). As long as their eyes and nose are clear there is probably no concern.
