It's possible, although the reaction may not be to the animal itself, as is the case with mammals & birds. Some people suffer allergic reactions to specific kinds of bedding (pine) or to ingredients in soaps from washing their hands after handling the animal.

My brother is an asthmatic and after ten years his asthma has shown no sign of improving. He has been to several doctors but they didn't help much.
If you want a proven, all-natural way to cure your asthma, without having to pay for useless medications with harmful side-effects, then this is the most important page you'll ever read.

short hair may well be somewhat extra appropriate for hypersensitive reaction,yet cats secrete a protein while they are licking/cleansing themselves. So there isn't any avoidance. Even the hairless cats,which could be saved indoors might secrete this protein. you would be able to desire to purchase an anti-allergen wipe, and wipe your cat (could be executed weekly) yet lower back no gurantee that this might artwork. ultimately, the U. S. have bred a definite cat which does no longer secrete the protein yet those cats fee around US$3000 to purchase!!! the colour of the cat would not make a distinction!

it shouldn't cuz snakes and lizards don't have flaky skin like cats or dogs and they don't have fur, they just shed all of their skin at once. so getting a pet reptile of any kind shouldn't trigger any kind of allergic reaction, unless ur allergic to scales...

no i'm sure that would work better then say a cat or dog. reptiles dont have hair, plus since you will be using lights alot more for your snake or something, there will be less humidity in the air.

No..however what type of beding you put in the cage can.
Like Pine, I have allergys and my snake beding bothers me sometimes but not bad.
