I have asthma and I reacted to dogs as a teenager I would always have a runny nose and uncontrolled asthma. During the pandemic I found a small kitten under my car. Because I had allergic reactions to dogs I had a lot of people telling me to not keep it. I longed for a pet and my one and only dog died in 1999 after which my parents never had any pets. I still took him in and later took his brother too. I share the same bed with them and beat covid and a severe asthma attack with them never leaving my side. They gave me courage and hope and I beat the delta variant. I surprisingly have no reaction to them. They are the domestic short hair who sleep on my pillow and snuggle with me. Even when I have an attack it is so much more easier for me to deal with it and the asthma is so much more controlled. Of course cat or no cat, I do have inhalers and nasal sprays to take every day. But having these angels around me is truly a blessing. In fact one of the wakes me up if I am having an attack when I am asleep.

As a cat lover with a cat allergy, I find this very useful! I've also considered getting a Sphynx and/or a Siberian! Maybe someday I'll get one of these cats as a companion!

I own a Balinese cat and am highly allergic to cats. As long as I take an allergy pill and nasal spray every day, I’m completely fine. Balinese cats are talkative, VERY playful/active, intelligent, an affectionate. They’re almost like dogs in the fact that it helps to have more than one person looking after them because they constantly crave human interaction!

When Zyrtec came out it mostly solved my severe allergy issues. We have a kitty…she’s actually hubby’s baby…but she can’t come up in the bed. I can pet her, but nit fir long periods or one my lap. I love cats and am happy to have her in the house. This is helpful information…she’s 20 now, so will save this.

I have a Balinese cat! I’m fairly allergic- if I walk into someone’s house who has cats I’ll immediately sneeze- and if I pet another cat I have to make sure to wash my hands. My Balinese cat I don’t react to! She sleeps near my face and I’m fine. I am still slightly allergic when she scratches me. I also feed her Purina Live clear- you’ll always technically be slightly allergic to your cat because no cat is free of that feld1 protein but as someone with a fairly severe cat allergy having a Balinese has been amazing!

I have always been allergic to cats. But I do not care about it because I have a kitten right now. Just 1. He's a short hair guy who is very sweetheart. He is a great cat. I am not giving up on him. Period.

[ameliawarfield]

I'm glad I'm not allergic to cats.

I love cats and have had different breeds of semi long haired cats as I’m a sucker for floofy, soft fur. First I had Birmans, then Ragdolls and I now have Siberians. I can’t imagine living my life without cats, and found it sad that friends with allergies couldn’t visit. Fortunately, with the Siberians it seems they can visit. My daughter’s boyfriend is also allergic to cats but hasn’t reacted to our Sibs, he even cuddles them.

Thank goodness I am not allergic to cats!

I have always been allergic to cat & dog dander. But in high school, I lived with an aunt who had dogs & found that I became more tolerant of their dander. I eventually got a standard poodle (who is hypoallergenic, demure, & loving). I would love to get a kitten that my allergies can get used to. I did a bit of cat sitting & found that my allergies are pretty bad still with them (swollen itchy eyes, sneezing, runny nose), so I'd love to try 1 of these breeds. I hope I get to spend time with a few in person so I can complete my fur family ♡

[traviswhaley]

Siamese are my favorite, then Russian Blue 2nd. WoW that Devon Rex looks funny😁. I want a Siberian cat! I agree adoption is for life.

[Sharon-pbso]

My allergist told me that you can build up a tolerance to your own cat. That's been true for me. I just have to watch they don't put their nose on my neck during a snuggle. I'll get hives where I'm touched especially by their noses. I found my long haired cats to be less allergenic than short haired cats. Anyone else out there in You Tube Land have a similar experience?

[minako]

I looked at so many cats before I found one that I could tolerate. She's part British short hair and parts is parts Siberian. Anyway her coat is short but thick and keeps the dander close to her skin.
We also brush every other day.. and because she freaking loves it. We bath 4x a year, or as needed. Like when she got under a car and came out painted in grease.
I have had mixed experiences. I've had a cat run against my hand and gotten hives instantly. I've had my friends Cheetoh (real breed) do the same thing and no reaction. I will get a small reaction from litter paws.

Now if I could only learn to clean regularly.

[safahussain]

My cat doesn't eat grapes but.. she does like to play with them so she roams around with a grape in her mouth looking for someplace to hide it. I already knew her hiding place so I used to leave it there for her to play but after watching one of your videos I saw that cats shouldn't eat grapes or raisins and if they do it can lead to kidney failure so I got scared and stopped her from playing with grapes and if I did see it in her hiding place I pick it up. So thank you 😊 for the advice. Your channel is really helpful.

P.S I know that this isn't the video I should be telling this but I wanted you to know so I looked for your most recent video and commented on it.

[elizabethmeyers]

Russian blues to me r for sure the best soft grey my Russian blue I have had her 19 years one the best she talks to me like she's half human 🐺😻

[annegillespie]

Very good video, didn’t know some cat were better for allergies 🤧 but thank goodness I can have any type/breed with me !😍🥰😻😎🤗

[ebonyhorton]

I love animals but have always had real bad cat allergies...I am now looking after a siberian that wandered in to my house 3 days ago & could be a stray.. I wouldn't say I've had no issues but its deffo a LOT better! Thanks for the vid I hope to be able to keep this lil guy or get a dog/cat one day 🥲💕

My Kitty friend is a Bengal who has three layers of fur, with the black at 45ˆ. Her fur is coming back, after a long struggle that's finally improving. But I am unaccustomed to her saliva, until recently (no reaction, so far), and she has begun to shed the undercoat, I think. I will search your site for more info on my sweetie - thank you for sharing this interesting and useful information.
