Many people still believe that if an allergy is related to cats, then the reaction must certainly be caused by the fur, therefore, there should be no problems with a hairless cat.
But allergy sufferers need to forget this common misconception.
Doctors say that a hairless cat is just as dangerous for allergy sufferers as cats of any other breed.
The fact is that an allergic reaction is caused not only by the animal’s fur, regardless of whether it is thick or long.
Often the body reacts painfully to the animal's saliva, skin particles or musky secretions.
It is known that this myth is cultivated by breeders of hairless cats.
But in reality, no animal can be considered hypoallergenic.
In the case of hairless cats, you need to be prepared for the fact that the lack of hair will only aggravate the reaction due to close contact with the irritant (if it is skin).
In addition, it is important to remember that cats love to rub against people, mark things and furniture, which again can cause allergies.
