If Selkirk Rexs hypoallergenic cats good?
Normally I’m allergic to animal hair, so my family chose a Bichon Frise for a dog and have never had a problem with allergies in the seven years we have had. Now I’m looking for a cat and I’ve noticed that the Selkirk Rex has features similar to Bichon that both have multiple layers, curly hair. I was wondering if anyone knew if a Selkirk would make a good addition to our family, even if I am allergic to most cats.
Go to the breeder, manage and view the cats if you are allergic, there is no such thing as a hypoallergenic pet is just a sales gimmick. You have to understand that people who are allergic to animals are allergic to proteins in the saliva and urine … so the skin has nothing to do with it.Generally, The shorter the hair, the less likely you are allergic, simply because the saliva that dries (dandruff) is lower in an animal with shorter hair. Protein hair, saliva or urine of pets cause an allergic reaction that attacks the eyes and airways, such as hay fever, and may result asthmatic symptoms. It may also cause atopic dermatitis or urticaria. It is often difficult to avoid allergens that may come from pets others or be transported by people who have been in contact with animals. School classes can be overloaded with pet allergens. Most allergies are often cats or dogs, but rats, mice, guinea pigs, hamsters, pet birds, horses, cows or poultry can be involved. http://www.netdoctor.co.uk/health_advice/facts/allergypets.htm
