Yes, there are hairless breeds. Also, there are drops for the cat's food that get rid of the dandruff.

Allergies vary. Some people could be allergic to all cats, others to just some cats. The allergies could be reactive to certain breeds or even just certain individuals.
Has your husband ever been tested? A lot of people think they have pet allergies when they really don't.
Depending on the severity of the allergies, you can sometimes manage them within the home.

I believe that some people find they are not allergic to Rex cats, also hairless breeds. I think it depends on how severe the allergy is. also you would probably have to clean more often so that the dandruff does not build up. I hope this helps

You might actually be allergic to hairless cats. Get tested and find out what you are allergic to. It's common to be allergic to dander. You can combat some of the allergens by bathing your cat, too. AND umm.. there ARE good allergy medications on the market.

well if you look on google it might tell you. If that info you got was misleading I'd try to get him allergy meds. My friend has a cat and uses her inhaler and takes her meds and shes fine! Hope this is helpful!

I would get whatever cat you want and get rid of the husband!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then.....find another husband who is not allergic and then he could pay all your bills and leave you at home all day playing with your cats!
Sounds perfect!!!!!!!
