Yes, you might have a claim if the realtor was aware of the condition and aware of your health concerns regarding facts. So you might need to discuss with an attorney an action to rescind the contract or claim other damages.

We would need to review the facts. Do you have in writing that you told your agent that you could not purchase a home where cats have lived ? do you have proof that the cats lived there and that the agent had knowledge that the cats lived there ? was the agent also duped ?
